The village of Balcombe is famous for a series of murals about World War I in its Victory Hall. The murals were featured on a television programme about the war in 2005. That is not the only link between Balcombe and wars. It was the birthplace of Colour Sergeant Frank Bourne DCM, who fought at the battle of Rorke's Drift in the Zulu War, and who was the last British survivor of that battle when he died in Dorking in 1945.
