Re-colonised sand-pit, Town of Lowton
This sand pit (approx 17m deep) was the last of a series which exploited the glacial deposits on either side of the A572 between Newton-le-Willows and Lowton during the 19th/20th centuries (nearby are Sandfield Hall and Sandup Farm!). It has now almost completely recolonised with trees, though only 20 years ago there was considerable open grassland.
