Footpath alongside Ebbsfleet Valley
Maps of this area from 30 years ago show a woodland in what is called Swanscombe Park on the other side of the metal fence. Now this has mostly been swept away and replaced by the huge Ebbsfleet Eastern Quarry. An ambitious plan has been drawn up for the future commercial and residential development of the quarry to be called Ebbsfleet Valley. It has yet to be fully started and will take between 20-25 years to develop as a whole. The white building in the distance is The Observatory. This is the base from which Land Securities, the developers of Ebbsfleet Valley, are based.

The substation has now been demolished.
