I'm aware this one has been posted on here before, more than once, so won't bore anyone with any history.

Took a trip up there at the weekend, some activity going on, test drilling in the pit etc, some temporary pipelines been run in........so looks like Wolf Minerals may be thinkin about doing something !!!

Asbestos everywhere !!!! Mostly broke roof sheets, but worth wearing a decent mask or going on a damp day !!!

You metioned they were drilling test pits - well got some bad news. Heard on the local news the other day that they are planning to reopen the quarry as they've found something there.
 
Nice pictures, never been but see it from a far quite often.


Whys it bad news? Few more jobs from the area and may even give me some extra work :)
 
I thought that Wolf company went or was going bust.

If it does reopen, it looks like Plymouth Uni's entire compliment of Photographic, film and art students are going to have to find some other building to cover in paper unicorn cutouts and other gay art 'projects'
