Addition By Subtraction aims to create a nursery of native plants in the Tout Quarry, providing educational access for the public to memorialise the quarrying process. The seedlings of plants can be transported to the neighbouring quarry, Bowers Quarry, developing a sustainable cycle to rehabilitate the future of a used quarry.

The Tout Quarry is situated to the north of Bowers Quarry, which is planned to be disused in the future.

The Tout Quarry is situated to the north of Bowers Quarry, which is planned to be disused in the future.
