It is some time since we visited this interesting site which is situated just to the west of the village. What was formerly a large hardrock quarry has been infilled and landscaped to recreate an area of elevated ground similar in shape to the former hill prior to its being quarried away. The abundant old thorns and ample fruit often attract good numbers of winter thrushes.
Meet at Mountsorrel Hall car parkopposite the Green. SK584147
