Old quarry
The quarry, whose NNW-facing rock face is about 50 metres long, is labelled "quarry" on the 1895 revision of the 25 inch map, and "old quarry" (meaning "disused") on the 1912 revision. It is in a sloping field, about 160m south of Glenburn Reservoir, and about 245m WNW of the site of a long-gone farm called Duchallaw (see Link for Duchallaw itself).
