The Evelyn family set up a gunpowder works in the area after being awarded the royal monopoly and the industry dominated this area for more than 300 years. The Tillingbourne operated the water mills and the valley was full of alder trees, which were ideal for making the charcoal required as a raw material for gunpowder.
