We walked past here in September 2025 but sadly the waterfall was totally dry and not running even tho it had been a very rainy week. A lot of the vegetation around it has also been cut.

Considering the recent wet weather, this was dry and fenced off, totally pointless location

Tillingbourne Waterfall is a delightful little cascade on the River Tillingbourne. It's on the route of the Greensand Way, a 108-mile (174 km) long-distance trail that follows the Greensand Ridge across Surrey and Kent. The waterfall can also be easily visited on a hike to Leith Hill, which is just a short walk along the trail to the south. Can be dry during summer!
