Our quarry manager Alan Smith at the East Leake quarry sent this great panoramic picture of his site where restoration is ongoing at Lings Farm.

This is the site where seven bee-eaters nested this summer and the quarry is re-starting after being non-operational for a period.

Overburden removal has started and during archaeology checks the contractors are restoring the Lings Farm area which will be soiled and seeded in the next 2 weeks.
