This sign on an old shed is by the side of Rooley Moor Road at Catley Lane Head. Ding Quarry (stone quarry) has been unused for years but there is a planning application before Rochdale BC to re-open it. This will generate heavy traffic on the Pennine Bridleway National Trail - a superb recreational route over a wild moor. Local residents aren't too keen on it either.
