Headington Quarry, Oxford
A view of Quarry Hollow Play Area from the Quarry Hollow (road name) direction. This picture gives a good idea of the environmental impact that stone quarrying had on this surburb during the late 14th to mid 18th centuries. A substantial number of Oxford's colleges were built using Headington Stone and some colleges owned their own quarries here in this part of the city. Much of the village consists of properties built on undulating terrain, connected by narrow alleyways. This recreation area was created c.1974 In the distance, beyond the wooden directional signpost, another entrance/exit exists joining Quarry Road.

Quarry High Street
The old village of Headington Quarry grew up around the stone working industry and is distinctly different from newer, suburban Headington.
The shop here looks a bit closed but is still in business as a musical instrument
repair workshop.
