I didn't even know this place existed until I was looking at the online ordnance survey map for Cannington Viaduct. It's literally down the lane from the bridge, but you can't see anything until you're actually on the quarry site.
At the bottom of a winding trackway there's a barrier with all sorts of dire warnings to keep out, so I duly scrambled under
. The barrier was situated over a cattle grid, which was a bit disconcerting!
It's totally deserted, which is brilliant, but also a bit eerie when you're on your own in the middle of nowhere...and the place echoed so I kept hearing my own footsteps which felt like someone was following me! An excellent place, though. Enjoy!
The obligatory broken window in the checkpoint.
Cheers
