Faulds Brow quarries

While we were out walking the dog yesterday Tom did a detour ...we are so lucky to have this  on our doorstep!

Unusual iron pyrite nodules- a possible indication of anaerobic depositional conditions

Chaetetes demosponge with a 1/2" chisel

Possible solution pipes in calcareous shale

One of the many smaller quarries- this one is in a large sinkhole
