Site Details
Quarry created by the building of the M40. Once work was completed the quarry was flooded creating a very deep lake. Despite its proximity to the motorway can be very productive site to visit. Best in winter when it has many wildfowl, includung some visitors from nearby RSPB Otmoor.Birding Sites in the Merton Borrow Pit Area
