Burbage millstone quarries viewed from Carl Wark


The southern end of Burbage Edge has been extensively quarried for millstone manufacture, probably mostly in the 19th century. Access to the quarries is via a track (former tramway perhaps?) which runs along a constructed embankment. Rock debris from millstone manufacture has been tipped over the embankment edge. The 'Cioch Block', an amazing, prow-like, pillar of rock left standing is visible just right of centre.
