Possible Photoshoot Location – Gunpowder Mill

Possible photoshoot location - Gunpowder Mill

It’s always good to scout a new location for a photoshoot and this one is absolutely amazing. It’s the remains of a disused gunpowder mill in the Surrey Hills and has a huge amount of potential for some really great images. I only had a couple of minutes as I had to dash off to another appointment so these were the only two shots I made. Apologies for the quality but camera phones aren’t great.

I’m pretty sure I’ll be using it several times. There is also a really good pub in the vicinity and it would be very rude not to pay the landlord a visit.

Please note that this site is disused so I very much doubt that there is any gunpowder remaining. There is also a public footpath and stream running through the location, and several spots with picnic tables. I’ll probably be taking the family there for a walk in the countryside at some point in the near future to properly scout the location. From what I have seen so far it has a huge amount of potential but I’m certain it has a lot more to offer for nature, architectural and fashion/portrait photographers.

It’s also very accessible too being just outside a village with a station and bus stop just down the road.
