The large area proposed for Local Green Space called "Land north east of Long Ashton" includes the Tarmac's Durnford Quarry operational extraction area as shown on the Proposals Map.

This area is subject to limestone extraction and infilling for at least the next 15 years and is not accessible by the general public.

The quarry area must be removed from the Proposals map and this may result in the site area of the Local Green Space (298.01 hectares) being recalculated.

Following restoration of the site there is the potential to incorporate the land in the Local Green Space designation.
