Bowes Valley Nature Reserve (SITA)

This was the site of a clay pit and brickworks in an area with a history of coal mining. The clay pit was used in the 1990s as a landfill site and has been gradually restored by the waste management company Sita UK. It is now a nature reserve with a network of new public rights of way forming a green space for people and wildlife.
