Stanworth rock cutting, view west, 16 October 1995

Stanworth rock cutting, view west (see all photos of the same view)

Significant progress has been made at Stanworth, though at the time this picture was taken the new cutting was largely deserted. The rock cutting is now reaching something like its eventual depth. Much of the surface is made up of broken rock which awaits removal.
