The Mendip Hills are designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

A limestone plateau, it is known for its drystone walls, swallets, gorges, caves, and distant views over the neighbouring Somerset Levels. Its quiet rural appearance and calcareous grassland, teeming with species rich butterflies and meadow flowers, belies a heavily industrialised past. In this project I show old lead, coal and limestone mines and quarries which are being reclaimed by nature as they fall into disuse.
