The 'Evening Standard' also reported on the popularity of Box Hill. In the 1920s, there was an increase in visitors to Box Hill because people had wider access to cars and buses. Visitors came to walk, picnic and even ski..(quote as vo - "Sunshine, snow and skis, men and women in brilliantly coloured suits and sweaters, home-made toboggans and Swiss luges have made of Box Hill this week-end a scene of Alpine beauty. It seemed yesterday as if Surrey's steepest hill held all the people who could safely and comfortably enjoy winter sport, but today hundreds more came by motor and train.")
