Westhumble /wɛstˈhʌmbəl/ is a village in south east England, approximately 2 km (1.2 mi) north of Dorking, Surrey.

The Mole Gap Trail runs through the village, crossing the North Downs Way less than 0.40 km (0.25 mi) to the south.

[6] The medieval village was centred on the present-day midpoint of Adlers Lane with gently sloping fields to the north and south.

The identity of the manor house is unclear, however there are repeated references to Hadlers Hall and later Audlers Hole in the Court Roll records.

The chapel is thought to have been built during the late twelfth or early thirteenth century for the use of villagers, particularly when floods prevented them from reaching the Parish Church in Mickleham.

[11] During the late Middle Ages and Early Modern periods, it would appear that the focal point of the village shifted half a mile eastwards from Adlers Lane to Westhumble Street.

Although the turnpike through the valley was not completed until 1755, the route was regularly being used to transport goods including charcoal and poultry to Kingston and London by the 14th century.

[12] For much of the winter the ford across the River Mole would have been impassable and so a secondary route on higher ground along the western side of the valley was used, of which Westhumble Street formed the southernmost part.

[7] Much of the modern village dates from the two decades following the break-up and sale of the Camilla Lacey estate in 1932 following the death of the owner Victor Freeman.

[13] Box Hill & Westhumble railway station, in the centre of the village, is on the Mole Valley Line between Leatherhead and Dorking.

[15] West through the village and up into the hills including Ranmore Common to Guildford is one of a choice of rural routes in the Surrey Cycleway.

The detective story writer Cyril Hare was born in Mickleham in 1900 and lived from 1951 until his death in 1958 in Westhumble, at Berry's Croft opposite Cleveland Lodge.
