Hotel Berkswell Quarry

Sand martins have found a home in CEMEX Berkswell Quarry. Earlier this year the quarry created a special sand pile in the hope that these fantastic birds would create a home. Sand martins make an amazing journey every winter from the Sahara to the UK, to breed in piles of sand. They live in colonies, sometimes with over 100 pairs breeding on a single site. Hotel Berkswell Quarry is nearly fully booked for the season!
