Ropeway end


Receiving station at the end of the Claughton Manor Brickworks aerial ropeway. An empty tub sits on the static rail to the right awaiting despatch back uphill. On the left side is the hopper that takes the shale down into the storage bunker. This is the only working ropeway left in Britain and brings shale down from the quarry 1½ miles away. The capacity of the ropeway is 250 tons per day.
