Kerridge Quarries, 1938

At one time, there were quarries on the east side of Kerridge Hill, as well as on the west where the quarries remain today. George Longden's historical study (see the Documents section) uses the name Kerridge quarries for those on the east side, but estimates that these were abandoned before the end of the 19th century, so the precise location of the quarry in this image remains a mystery.
