Monument record MDO37842 - Quarry, Chilfrome

Two small quarries are marked on the Ordnanace Survey 1st edition map to the east of Grove Stall, Chilfrome. They (along with a third extractive pit to the northwest) are visible as earthworks on lidar imagery and were digitally plotted during the Upper Frome and Sydling Valley AIM project.

Described as 'quarry' on the map, so presumably active at the time the map was surveyed. Considered likely, therefore, to be of mid-nineteenth century date.
