Full Description

In 2006 a cavity was found on a building site opposite the junction of Lower Heath Road and Sycamore Road. The site had formerly been a chalk quarry and in the early 20th century a trench was dug out from the quarry to the north. This was possibly dug following the discovery of a dene hole, which the cavity was the only remaining trace. (1)
