	North Downs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The North Downs in England is a ridge of chalk hills that stretches about 100 miles (160 km) from Hampshire through Surrey (where for part of their course they are known as the Hog's Back) and Kent.
		Due to the porous nature of the underlying chalk, the North Downs is generally a treeless landscape.
		Their constant eating of the grass kept down the scrub; the fact that few sheep now occupy the North Downs, and the myxomatosis outbreak in 1953 which led to fall in the rabbit population, means that there is more scrubland on the Downs than hitherto.

		As in the case of the North Downs a succession of rivers breach the hills, and a succession of towns mark the gaps.
		Smooth convex curves are characteristic of the Downs; their graceful and sti-iking outline gives them an importance in the landscape in excess of their actual height; their flanks are well wooded, their summits covered with close springy turf.
