It is in the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.〔(Natural England SSSI information on citation, map and unit details )〕〔(Cotswold District Local Plan, Appendix 1, Sites of Special Scientific Interest )〕 The site is listed in the 'Cotswold District' Local Plan 2001-2011 (on line) as a Key Wildlife Site (KWS) and a Regionally Important Geological Site (RIGS).〔(Cotswold District Local Plan, Appendix 2, Key Wildlife Sites )〕〔(Cotswold District Local Plan, Appendix 3, Regionally Important Geological Sites )〕 ==Geology== The Quarry exposes the Upper Bathonian Athelstan Oolite and also the overlying Forest Marble. These are limestones of the Jurassic Period which was laid down 160 million years ago. This is considered the best example in the Tetbury area of the development of the Athelstan Oolite. This particular exposure is important in facies and stratigraphic interpretation of the Bathonian rocks.〔
