	Gravel pit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Gravel pit is the British English term for an open cast working for extraction of gravel (river-deposited rounded stones).
		Gravel pits normally lie in river valleys where the water table is high, so they fill naturally with water to form ponds or lakes.
		Old, abandoned gravel pits are normally used either as nature reserves, or as amenity areas for water sports, camping and walking.

	Trenching, drainage, french drains, gravel pit... - Landscape Design Forum - GardenWeb (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		The front-yard downspouts currently connect to the drainage line that runs down our driveway to the street (we do have slope here, and this works fine.) There's no way to get any slope from the rear yard to the front in order to tie in the back downspouts.
		So what I'm contemplating doing is digging a gravel pit as far out in the yard as possible (40-50'), running the rear-yard downspouts and a couple french drains thru the rear yard out to this.
		Are there any tricks to sizing a gravel pit of this sort (other than guesstimating the acre-feet of water we get during a week of a wet winter)?
