Pitstone Quarry er et 10,3 hektar stort geologisk særligt videnskabeligt interesseområde i Pitstone, Buckinghamshire. Det er området mellem søen og jernbanelinjen i College Lake naturreservat.
Stedet afslører aflejringer fra den mellemste og sene pleistocæn, i de sidste en halv million år. De fleste sedimenter er resultatet af solifluktion, gentagen glidning under istidene, med kanaler i skråningerne fyldt med sedimenter. Den seneste varme periode, Ipswichian for omkring 125.000 år siden, indeholder flodheste fossiler. Ifølge Natural England fortsætter evalueringen, og "resultaterne afventes med spænding".
