The former Judkins Quarry* is off to the left. The tramway/railway tracks have been removed. Sidings alongside the public railway were off to the right. This is now Bridge 23A across the Coventry Canal. *Tuttle Hill Granite Quarries. Quarrying of granite and the extraction of clay began on the site in the mid-18th century. The quarry ceased operation in 1996, and was artly used as a landfill site for household waste. This also stopped, in 2009.
