Stanworth rock cutting, view west 2, 12 January 1995

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

The end of contract 1 is clearly visible here, and at the bottom of the picture, on the line of the motorway that will form part of contract 2, the first of a village of tents can be seen in the treetops - part of an extensive anti-roads protest that took place in Stanworth valley.
