Broadpath landfill was developed in a sand and gravel quarry excavated by [[Aggregate Industries]] (at the time known as [[ECC Quarries Ltd]]) and is located approximately 1km to the north of the village of Uffculme. A previous scheme to develop a [[Dilute and Disperse Landfill]] (which is now not permitted under the [[Landfill Directive]]) in a different part of the quarry complex was brought forward by [[ECC Quarries Ltd]] in the 1980s and failed to achieve [[Planning Permission]].
