Summary edit
| Description |
English: Derelict quarry building, Rosebush Even in the summertime these ruined buildings below Rosebush and Bellstone quarries look dour and forbidding. This one was probably a sorting shed: the slates produced here were not of high quality although they were used for the roof of the palace of Westminster. Both quarries commenced in c.1830 and from c.1870 onwards Rosebush expanded to employ well over 100 people, with an output of 5000 tons, supporting a village community with a railway, hotel and chapel. It was a welcome source of employment in an impoverished area but the operation came to an end around the turn of the century. |
