This outcrop tells a story of when Kenilworth lay just north of the Equator in a semi-desert climate with market wet and dry seasons. Many buildings in Old Kenilworth, notably the Castle, the Abbey and St. Nicholas Church, are built of the local Kenilworth Sandstone that you can observe here.

Has this disappeared due to HS2? Looked for it 12 months ago from the Bridge in Burton Green all we could see was the 6 lane wide barren line of red earth stretching towards Kenilworth
