About this stone
Ashby Ville Nature Reserve, also known as Lakeside, is a former sand and gravel quarry near Scunthorpe in North Lincolnshire, England, that’s been transformed into a designated Local Nature Reserve with lakes, wetlands, and woodlands. It features nutrient-poor, sandy soils ideal for nectar-rich wildflowers, and supports a range of mammals, bats, butterflies, and diverse plant life across its former quarry landscape of mounds and hollows.
