Greetwell Quarry

 

My Boxing Day walk drew my attention to the way an earlier industrial intrusion into Greetwell parish was not the Lincoln bypass but a Victorian ironstone quarry.  I’d be unaware of it even when living less than a mile from it in 1994-1999.  So walking on New Year’s Day took me all around the scrub and overgrown land until reaching this extensive quarry wall.  The low afternoon late December sun came through and brightened the honey coloured surface.
