| Description: | Ham Bank, Mickleham. Looking N. (downstream). Swallow-hole in bed of River Mole. A number of swallow-holes are present in the bed of the River Mole, between Dorking and Leatherhead, many of which were exposed to view during the dry summer of 1949. The surface flow of the river gradually lessened downstream from Dorking due to loss in swallows, and the final remnant about 1 million gallons a day disappeared down a single swallow at Ham Bank; beyond the stream bed was dry. |
