[edit] Windy ridge
Windy Ridge is a hill near Little Bowden. It contains an asbestos dump, however this is not particularly dangerous as it is underground and quite old. The area is often used for walks by local people. There have been several attempts to build on Windy Ridge, all of which have been opposed by residents concerned by possible disturbance of the buried asbestos and the effect development may have on the skyline.
