Not yet derelict but most of the gravel pits are!
Unusual bit of transport brought about by the inability of the sand company to secure the land between their two sites.
The sand/gravel is picked up next to the M50 where it crosses the river and transported in 80-90 tonne loads for 2 miles to the gradeing plant south of Upton.
Empty, note freeboard.
88 tonnes on board
Gradeing plant wharf.
