Burton Leonard Quarry

Unfortunately, the Visit to Bishop Monkton Ings with Kevin Walker will have to be changed, due to the presence of threatening cattle!

Instead, Kevin will lead a grasses and sedges “refresher course” at YWT Burton Leonard Quarry. This is a lovely little site on the magnesian limestone with particularly diverse flora – there will be many interesting plants to see as well as the grasses and sedges, and butterflies too if the weather obliges.

In the afternoon, if time allows, we will visit Bishop Monkton Railway Cutting, another YWT site nearby.

Meet at 10 AM at the reserve entrance, NGR SE 32440 63193. You will need to park in the village and walk down Lime Kiln Lane.
