Ledbury Cutting is a Site of Special Scientific Interest[1][2] near Ledbury, Hereforshire, England. The protected area is centred on a railway cutting on the Worcester and Hereford Railway, near to the entrance to the Ledbury Tunnel. The protected area is important because of the fossils of jawed fishes found in the local sediments.
