I if you look very carefully you will make out a zip wire which runs from here to the opposite end of the flooded quarry (at the patch of earth visible just to the right of centre). The dot which can be seen towards the top centre of the water is one of the two current riders. It is promoted as the "Highest, longest and fastest zip wire" currently operating in the UK.
