Rubislaw Quarry, Aberdeen
The quarry that supplied most of the granite used in the houses of Aberdeen. It closed in 1971 and was said to be the largest man-made hole in Europe. As can be seen, it has since filled with water. The only public viewpoint is through a fence on the Queen's Road side. The buildings seen are oil company offices built in the 1980s.
