Description: | Chalk is quarried for making cement, lime-burning and agricultural purposes. It may also be used as a furnace flux and for whiting. Note the large flint nodules to the front-right of the picture. Before mechanisation chalk workers frequently came across prehistoric flakes and flint-tools. | Subjects: | Chalk Pit Machinery Landscape Industry | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Ashley, Hallam | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
