Full Description

The 1st and 2nd Edition Ordnance Survey maps mark a quarry in this location. It does not, however, appear on the Withiel Florey Tithe Map. [1-3] The site was visited in March 2013. The location of the quarry was visible as a dimple in the field, although it has presumably been partially infilled. At the time of the survey it was visible containing snow. [4]
