Hindhead: Rare ‘hair ice’ formation spotted in Surrey Hills

A walker spotted a very rare ice formation known as hair ice or frost beard.

Rev. Jonny Scott, from Godalming, was with his wife on Friday in the Devil’s Punch Bowl in the Surrey Hills when he spotted the phenomenon.

The ice only forms on wood from the broadleaf tree in below zero temperatures at latitudes between 45°N and 55°N, according to the Met Office.

Rev Scott said: “Nature never ceases to amaze me.”
