History
The present buildings were erected in 1949 and production ceased in 1991. The quarry dates back to 1851 and cement was manufactured on the site since at least 1898.
Visited the distribution centre on the west where all the bagging up of the ground cement took place. Also toured the bus graveyard. Went with my husband, son (who tried out some HDR for his photography course)and fellow explorer Gullible Dave.
The east side visit was a month later - see other report.
I thought these were pretty good for Luke's first go at HDR - not too over the top.
The robots came out to greet us!
I love these cement bags trapped in ... cement.
A couple from the bus / car graveyard.
Thanks for looking.
