Flooded quarry: Berengrave Nature Reserve
This part of the nature reserve consists of the abandoned chalk quarry of the British Standard cement plant which operated from 1913 to 1931. For details, see http://www.cementkilns.co.uk/cement_kiln_british_standard.html and related pages. The quarry when operated drained naturally through a culvert under the road. Blockage of this allows the quarry to fill in the winter, and the water has risen to around the 5 m contour.
