I know this has been covered before so I won't bore you with a copid history.
That being said, here's the link - https://www.mindat.org/loc-5193.html

I went here for a couple of hours with my kids, who I didn't let climb the machinery, although they enjoyed looking at it all, and the mineral formations.

It's a walk In explore, nobody bothered us.

It's a nice walk around and possibly may be gone in the future as the talks of a waterpark continue.

Here's some pics anyway

It's a nice place. We went about four years ago as passing and a few people said it was being used again. We were quite pleased to find it still derelict after no reports for ages. Nicely done mate.

It will be a shame if/when it goes as its one of the only quarrys in Derbyshire with all the machinery still inside as far as I'm aware.

And the kids loved it, shoebox full of rocks lol
