Botany Bay Brick Pit, Brandon, Suffolk ....

"A remote brick pit in the forest, the findspot for a massive Palaeolithic handaxe.  A mile’s trek through Thetford Forest brings you to a remote place named Botany Bay. It is a Victorian brick-making site, and includes a wooded brickearth pit, a dilapidated kiln structure with scatters of broken bricks, and the forlorn remains of Bromehill Cottage. Apart from being a reminder of local industrial history, Botany Bay is also interesting as a historic site of Palaeolithic archaeological research."
