Capel Surrey Map

About Capel

Capel rests in the embrace of Surrey's gentle countryside, a place where the air itself seems to hold a quiet luminescence. It lies 8.8 km south of Dorking (from Dorking: bearing 175°T, OS grid TQ 176 407), and is situated south of Beare Green village. The land around Capel slopes with a subtle grace, suggesting the slow, patient work of water over millennia, carving shallow dips and rises that cradle fields of ripening wheat and barley, their stalks shimmering like spun gold under the afternoon sun. In the heart of Capel, a modest village green offers a soft expanse of grass, often dappled with the fleeting shadows of passing clouds, a quiet stage for the village's unhurried life. Its buildings, a mix of weathered brick and render, speak of generations that have known the particular quality of light that falls upon this corner of the Mole Valley, a light that lends a soft, almost painterly hue to the surrounding landscape.
