This was a favourite building of the late David Robinson because the lower part of the roadside wall is built of knapped white flint.

The earthworks of the medieval village extend for 500m on the south side of a shallow valley, between the present village to the east and the site of a medieval priory to the west.

Seen here are some of the rectangular enclosures between the stream and a hollow way.

Building at quarry entrance.

Now disused, the chalk quarry is believed to have been operated by North Ormsby Lime Ltd from 1938-1971. Geologically it is an exposure of the Burnham Chalk Formation. This is thick-bedded chalk with beds of flint which probably accounts for the use of these materials in local farm buildings. See: http://www.hullgeolsoc.co.uk/hg1520.htm

The church of St Helen was built in 1848 by S S Teulon.

Made redundant in 1981, the church is now a private house.

In the nearby valley can be seen earthworks of the medieval village and the site of a former Gilbertine priory.
