Miniature Granite Quarry, Table Hill
Image: © Bob Embleton Taken: 24 Sep 2006
A typical small quarry on the Malvern Hills. Probably to provide granite for nearby house construction or to make a path around the hills. The hills have been blighted by large scale granite quarries - all now, thankfully, stopped by the pressure of the Malvern Hills Conservators who keep the hills for the commoners and the general public to enjoy. Late September gorse brighten the scene - the broom flowers are long gone.
