Full Description

A chalk pit is visible on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th edition OS maps at Wye with Hinxhill, Ashford. The pit is not visible on the Heritage Tithe map, so many have been established after 1858, and is visible but not labelled on the 3rd and 4th edition OS maps, suggesting that it may have gone out of use before the 20th century.
