Chilworth’s Hidden Time Capsule

Available for over a year

Nestled in the Surrey Hills, the Chilworth Gunpowder Mills tell a story of secret explosions, centuries-old craftsmanship, and the rise and fall of one of Britain’s most important military supply sites. Ken Bare takes a wander among moss-covered ruins, millstones, and waterways that once powered an empire - and reveals 300 years of history waiting to be rediscovered. Image: Historic England
