Walk around Rhiwbach quarry 8.


Today we leave the village and arrive at the lake. This was once a quarry but filled with water when no longer in use. The water was then piped further down the valley to power the slate cutting machinery in the dressing sheds at the Penmachno quarry.


The back way out of the village.


If you look at the ruin right at the back you will notice the holes in the wall that supported beams. This must have been a two story building which is unusual, maybe it housed the school and shop.


Mother nature busy reclaiming another building.
