Description
The quarry is cut into a south facing slope. The quarry is scoop-shaped. It is excavated into level ground and has a depth of 4m. It would appear that the quarry was formed to extract walling stone. The quarry is cut 10m into the slope. The material extracted was shale. The ground cover was bracken at the time of survey. Britton, B. & Lewis, D.L., ArchaeoPhysica Ltd, 18/12/2009
