Heritage Open Day: Explore the varied history of Soper Hall since its opening in 1912 as a memorial to William Garland Soper - known as the father of modern Caterham. Since opening in 1912 the Soper Hall has has many uses - mainly as the offices of The Warlingham & Caterham Urban District Council, but also as a Control Centre during WWII. Explore the parts of the building not usually accessible to the public - including the 'Secret Cold War Bunker', meet 'Mr & Mrs Soper' and enjoy free drinks whilst viewing our '100 years of Soper Hall' timeline, which will include lots of fascinating information and wonderful old photographs of times gone by.
