Nice place Dean O, love the 3 cylinder lister water pump in pic 3-4 we used to use them in the quarries because they would pump all day long. I also love the photo's of the stone cutting saw (pics 7-10). The place looks well derelict but very peacefull. Cheers for sharing
 
Ohhhh... I really like this. When I saw the title quarry, I was imagining it'd be the usual empty hole in the ground, but this is really nice. I love the water. A really fascinating place.

Ah, I wondered what these things are...I've seen a few at various quarries. Thanks Jon. :)

That's a beautiful place, Dean. Not a huge amount left, but interesting nonetheless. Love your last few close-up pics especially. :)

No probs Foxy, they are worth thier weight in gold. The ones we had would run for a full 24 hour on 2 to 3 gallon of red diesel. They are air cooled as well so no radiators to worry about.
 
Nice photos there matey, but I just could halp having a play with the first one, hope you dont mind :p
