Monks Park is divided into two sections, one part is still a working stone quarry while the other part was once a Royal Navy storage depot but is now occupied by Leafield Engineering who make components for the defence industry and commercial users.

The quarry was owned by Hanson in recent years with the depot directly on top of the mine.One of the last uses for the stone was in the restoration of the fire damaged parts of Windsor Castle.
