Tarbooat found this quarry, earlier on in the year, then Mendo and Bungle explored it, and now Mendo took me to see it a few weeks ago.

A few of the many pics i took.

Some poor creatures sad end.

View from the top of one of the conveyors.

Cheers,

Sal

Just a few more from me, sorry.

We didn't see this sign till we'd climbed down off the conveyor.

A noose?

A view of the site from the top door of that huge green building.

Last one from me.

Cheers,

Sal

great photo's Sal, looks like you had a great time there. Love the photo looking down on the site from the top door.

Nice one, Sal. Great to see so many conveyors still in situ.
I do so love a quarry! :mrgreen:

Foxy, it was ace. So many conveyors of all different heights, and crushers, and a tarmac place all on site. Absolutely brilliant day we had here.

Well done to Tarboat for finding it.

I have no idea mate. Mendo drove as he's been there before. Tarboat's the man to ask, he's the guy who found it.

Sorry I'm not much help.

So I'm guessing that it is not in derbyshire then. Do you know if it is near here?
Thanks,
James
