This upper part of Blue Hill Quarry is so well concealed that I was unaware of its existence until I stumbled on it while walking in the surrounding forest. Being a Saturday, it was not working, so I was able to take a couple of images. The quarry is one of several operated by Leiths, supplying material to the construction industry.
