| Description: | New Trees Quarry, Joseph Arnold and Sons Ltd., Shenley Hill Road, Leighton Buzzard. General view of workings at New Trees Quarry. Overburden of Gault Clay can be seen above the 'Silver Sands' forming the upper part of the Woburn Sands. The purer whiter sands are taken away for processing and sale for industrial uses. The more ferruginous sands are screened on site and sold as building sands. On the right the pit is being backfilled with overburden material as working progresses.
