Seend Cleeve Quarry
Seend Cleeve Quarry (grid reference ST933609) is a 7.5 acres (3.0 ha) Geological Site of Special Scientific Interest at Seend Cleeve, Wiltshire, England, notified in 1987.
The site was an iron ore quarry and a steel mill, with the coal being delivered via the Kennet and Avon Canal. It also had its own on-site railway. None of these facilities had been preserved; the site is now pasture.
