Bus Stop Quarry


Before leaving Wales, we took a trip to Bus Stop Quarry, where there are some dramatic slate faces and edges.


Of course, there was yet more climbing!

    What an interesting name! Did a bus crash into the quarry? You must be THE PERFECT MUM to your two sons, H!!!!

    Definitely not the perfect mum.

    Bus Stop quarry is so named because there is a local bus service which trundles down the windy country lanes and services the villages. It terminates at a turning circle just below the quarry.

    Brings to mind places some people have used for a home or garden. Very impressive pictures and a great back drop. Check out Butchart Gardens in Victoria BC, built in an old quarry.

    Super photos! I was going to ask why it was called Bus Stop Quarry but see that you have already answered that question:)

    You're too modest, H! Thanks also for enlightening me on why the quarry has that name :)
