BOLTING POLICY

Anything done to this quarry will be an improvement

PREAMBLE

Once upon a time there was a large deep bowl of wet, green rock that no right-minded person would enter, yet alone have considered developing. Luckily there were a few not so right-minded brave knights, led by a wise king, whom did not mind a bit of hard work and could not bear to know that there was a lonely piece of rock in South Wales which had not been blessed with steel.

ACCESS

Southeast Wales Sandstone. Easy walk in.
