Lightmoor Tump, Ruspidge, Forest of Dean
The spoil from the Lightmoor Colliery was deposited here in vast, towering heaps. These are the somewhat eroded remnants of some of those spoil tips, known locally as Lightmoor Tump (Tump is a local word meaning man-made hillock). The spoil heap is situated beside the Family Cycle path and this view is facing more or less Easterly.
