Further clean up of stone crusher point 19th August 2017

18/8/2017

 
Sometimes it is hard to see what Cemex have been up to. Around Stone crusher point they appear to have done some further clean up.  Because we only visit the works on the weekends we see major changes and subtle signs of clean up operations e.g. freshly churned up ground with caterpillar tracks.

I took the opportunity to take some photos of the heavy duty machinery employed by Cemex in their clean up.

As this post is photo heavy I have separated the images into two sections.

1. Manor farm taking in the Pump Station and the culvert area.

2. Fleet Hill farm

More views of the ground around the Pump Station. They contrast with the gloomy photos of last week.
As usual the vehicles used in the clean up are congregated around the culvert/entrance to the site. I photographed them to show what is involved in clearing up this site.

Not a huge amount appears to have happened around here.  Cemex may well have been working elsewhere on the site.  They often do, and we tend to suddenly come across their working.

    A polite notice first: All photographs on this blog are owned by me and subject to copyright.

    Also, note that I have special permission to be on the Eversley quarry site of Fleet Hill farm, Manor farm and the Hampshire part, Chandlers farm. They are not open areas for general access.  Please keep to the public rights of way.

    I was quite fascinated to see how Cemex would restore their gravel extractions workings to become a nature reserve, and so started this blog.  There is an ulterior motive. It does mean that my partner and I get some well needed exercise as we stomp around the reserve every week.  Following the progress of the restorations does mean the walk is not as tedious as it might otherwise become.

    Don't worry about one of the archives being November 2025. You haven't entered a time warp! It's just that I've discovered a way to pin a post to the top of a blogger in Weebly; not straight forward apparently.  I have to set the date far far into the future.
