Description
The quarry is cut into a NE facing slope. The quarry is scoop-shaped. It is excavated into level ground and has a depth of 5m. It would appear that the quarry was formed to extract walling stone. Stone quarry, possibly done by modern machinery. Waste pile is present on the NE side. The ground cover was bracken at the time of survey. B. Britton and G. Arnold, ArchaeoPhysica Ltd, 15/12/2008
