Beacon hill wood

Limekiln Wood

Mining has been going here since the Roman times ,an old sluice still remains as well as The brick channels and watercourses

The last chance Quarry walk, chance ended here

 it was1.45pm when we arrived we'd heard the blasting siren 

so decided the road way would be best so no Quarry.!

But we did walk past all this

A working quarry but no view :(

 so cross busy A37 and back to end .
