DescriptionChinnor, Flooded chalk quarry and SSSI - geograph.org.uk - 753155.jpg
English: Chinnor: Flooded chalk quarry & SSSI This is Quarry 3 of the former Chinnor Cement Works, viewed from Oakley Hill.
It is also the Chinnor Chalk Pit SSSI, so defined by virtue of the exposure of various layers of chalk stratigraphy.
The works closed in 1999 and has been completely demolished, including its landmark chimney. All that remains are a few piles of crushed concrete and the listed 1908 beehive kiln, all visible here far left.
