<br />
'''Gravel pit''' is the [[British English]] term for an [[open-pit mining|open cast]] working for extraction of [[gravel]] (river-deposited rounded stones). Gravel pits normally lie in [[river]] [[valley]]s where the [[water table]] is high, so they fill naturally with water to form [[pond]]s or [[lake]]s. Old, abandoned gravel pits are normally used either as [[nature reserve]]s, or as [[amenity]] areas for [[Water sport (recreation)|water sport]]s, [[camping]] and [[walking]].<br />
