If anyone knows what this pit was actually called, let me know and I will amend the record. I am putting up some photos soon.

I'm not 100% certain but I think it was called Temple China Clay Pit. I'll try and find out something more precise but it won't be until next week.

It is Glynn Valley China Clay works. Last worked in 1942. The chimney 'fell' a few years ago but everything else still remains. The land is open access and has a footpath running through it.

That confirms what someone else told me by PM. Thanks to both of you.
