More about this scene

With its pollarded lime trees and some charming half-timbered cottages spread along its length, the village High Street suffered for several decades from the heavy traffic which thundered along this stretch of the A25 to Westerham, until the building of the M25 motorway brought a return to some semblance of rural tranquillity. During the Second World War, the fighter pilots based at Biggin Hill used to congregate at the Victorian White Hart pub further down the street.
