This former refuse tip has a large mound which is the soil from the excavation of a railway tunnel. Habitats are grassland and scrub, and unusual flora include grass vetchling and dark mullein.[1]
There is access by a track on the north side of the A21 opposite Sevenoaks Road, but the gate to the site is padlocked.
