A vast, abandoned limestone quarry with towering cliffs and a large, tranquil lake, surrounded by lush greenery and walking trails, offering a unique blend of industrial heritage and natural beauty.
Charming place, great for wild camping, and as an activity grownup-kid.
It's time to become an archaeologist yourself! Find your own fish! But you should bring a lot of time with you.
Nice walk up from the carpark with information along the way. You have to plan a more reasonable amount of time if you want to find any fossils. I had a ferry to catch so it was a quick visit. Still enjoyable.
Really interesting place to visit and with someone helping I found a lovely fossil fish.
Wonderful place to fossick for fossils. Has a lonely open emptiness but is great fun and we will be going back for more but we'll be better prepared next time so that we know what we are doing
Go fossil hunting its fun. Need stout footware and you have to walk to the quarry 1 mile. Keep dogs on a lead as there are sheep about.
