"Disused" Chalk pit

Image: © Ian Lavender Taken: 1 Sep 2005

This is a disused chalk pit to the north of Middleton on the Wolds. As can be seen from the picture a new wheel wash has been installed - although no weighbridge. A recent application for tipping "inert" waste had - I thought - been turned down. Time for a bit of research.
