Millstone quarry 1 HDR

08 Apr 2007 136
The southern end of Burbage Edge has been extensively quarried for millstone manufacture, probably mostly in the 19th century. This photo is an HDR attempt in order to cope with the huge range of light intensity on this sunny day. You can see some unfinished/unused millstones and also the remains of a stone-walled building (quarrymens', millstone mens' hut?) in the foreground.
