There is also an area of open water. Beetles include two Red Book species, Mordellistena humeralis and Mordellistena neuwaldeggiana.[1] There is access to the site from Devonshire Road.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url= http://www.sssi.naturalengland.org.uk/citation/citation_photo/1003111.pdf|title=Grays Thurrock Chalk Pit citation|series= Sites of Special Scientific Interest|publisher=Natural England|accessdate= 15 March 2016}} {{Commons category|Grays Thurrock Chalk Pit}}{{coord| 51.486| 0.316|type:landmark_region:GB|display=title}}{{SSSIs Essex}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://magic.defra.gov.uk/MagicMap.aspx?startTopic=Designations&activelayer=sssiIndex&query=HYPERLINK%3D%271003111%27 |title=Map of Grays Thurrock Chalk Pit|series= Sites of Special Scientific Interest|publisher=Natural England|accessdate= 15 March 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web|url= http://www.essexwt.org.uk/reserves/chafford-gorges |title= Chafford Gorges Nature Park |publisher=Essex Wildlife Trust|accessdate= 15 March 2016}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.healthylifeessex.co.uk/pages/outdoor-life/images/Chafford_Gorges.pdf|title=Map of Chafford Gorges Nature Park|publisher=Healthy Life Essex|accessdate=15 March 2016|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170114165108/http://www.healthylifeessex.co.uk/pages/outdoor-life/images/Chafford_Gorges.pdf|archivedate=14 January 2017|df=}} 3 : Sites of Special Scientific Interest in Essex|Chalk pits|Grays |
