Outridge Farm

Outridge is an 80 acre farm set on the side of Toy's Hill. It has an impressive grade 2 listed square oast house and piggery located in its centre and is home to the Octavia Hill basecamp.

This place gives a fantasic feel of openness and freedom in stark contrast to Toy's Hill. Outridge is a marvellous place to enjoy a peaceful relaxing walk, admire fine views over the north downs and discover the wildlife it supports.

Hop Production

The oast houses were originally used for the production of hops for beer. The hops would be dried, crushed and then packaged ready to be taken to a nearby brewery.
