Restoration works begin at Rockbeare Quarry

The Parish Council has been notified by Aggregate Industries that they will be commencing restoration works at Rockbeare Quarry from 21st March onwards. The works are required to provide a long-term stable landform.

Aggregate Industries said:

The initial stage of the works involves the felling of a number of trees which is why we are notifying you in case you are contacted by local residents, however the final restoration scheme does require us to re-plant so the trees will be replaced together with longer-term biodiversity benefits in terms of ponds and wet grassland habitats.
