The outer wall of Ellenbrook Brickworks forms an amphitheatre. This former brickworks is largely derelict and has recolonised as a woodland. It forms part of a Site of Biological Importance. Access to the area is established by the former mineral railway line, which is a Strategic Recreation Route for walkers and cyclists.
