Packington Mountain landfill site
Packington Mountain landfill site
Packington Mountain is one of the largest, if not the largest landfill site in Europe. It occupies part of the Earl of Aylesford's Packington Estate. In the middle distance is Melbrick's, a vast Wyevale garden centre. The fast A446 Kenilworth Road runs among the trees behind the glasshouses. The view is from the central reservation of the equally fast A452 Chester Road. Behind the camera is Bickenhill Common Farm.
