Hi all

Almost done for the Staffordshire road trip, day 2 saw me and Fluffy heading off in to the wilds too visit Kent hill sand quarry, I can find no info on this place other than a quarry is marked on maps dating back to 1870.

The Quarry is split over 2 levels and made up of 3 long passages with linking passages between them, much bigger than we had first thought.

Picture time.........

There are very few artifacts in the quarry (other than 1980`s beer cans) but there is the remains of this ore cart, which has seen better days.
