This site was formerly a gravel pit and then a landfill site. It has been colonised naturally by rough grassland and scrub. Fauna include burrowing bees, wasps and diverse bird species such as little ringed plovers and redshanks.[1]
There is access from Approach Road. The heath can also be accessed on foot via the Walton and Weybridge Footpath and Bridleway[3] from Lower Green, Esher.[4]
