Description
A post-medieval extractive pit is visible on historic aerial photographs and remote sensing data as earthworks and was mapped as part of the North Buckinghamshire Aerial Investigation and Mapping project (EBC18304). Located in a field about 285 metres SW of Kingsbridge Farm and centred at SP 70408 28459, an irregularly-shaped extractive pit is about 604 square metres in area. The extraction does not feature on historic OS map editions and therefore likely dates to the first half of the 19th century or earlier. On remote sensing data taken in 2019, the extraction site remains visible (1-2).
