Landscaping East Pit East Pit old chalk quarry is shortly to be opened to the public as a nature reserve. Here digger tracks show where the ground has been levelled to be more suitable for visitors on foot (and less suitable as an unofficial motorbike scramble venue). The blue cabin at the back is being used by a group of archaeologists.
