    Drainage Issues in Dorking

    Dorking sits where the River Mole cuts through the North Downs, creating a complex mix of chalk, Greensand, and Gault Clay within a small area. Drainage conditions change dramatically between streets depending on the underlying geology.

    The town's chalk springs emerge along the base of the downs, creating persistent ground water that affects drainage in the lower town centre. The famous Deepdene area experiences consistently high water tables.

    Victorian and Edwardian villas across Dorking have drainage systems approaching 150 years of age. These systems often include combined foul and surface water connections that predate separation requirements.

    The Mole's flood risk zone affects properties near the river. Seasonal flooding and ground water rise create periodic drainage problems that require flood-resilient design.
