Dove Holes Quarry

Dove Holes quarry is operated by Cemex and ships out vast quantities of limestone by road and rail. The quarry is an amalgamation of the earlier Holderness and Newline quarries both of which have been lowered to the water table. Recent developments have seen the quarry expand northwards into the Bee Low area. There is a large area of fixed plant for crushing and screening the stone. The tipping dock for the primary crusher is lower left with the stone then being taken by conveyor to a stockpile under the gantry to the right of centre.
