Well, on a wet and windy day CitadelMonkey, Lesbus and I ventured out of town to Wiltshire where the weather remained remarkably dry all the time we were underground and only chucked down with rain whilst we were walking around on the surface.
Ridge Quarry is one of the sites that, along with Monkton Farleigh, Tunnel and Eastlays, made up CAD Corsham. Not as large as the more frequently visited Monkton Farleigh mine there is still plenty to see on a nice and easy explore. Thanks to Scamper for his expert guiding and I'm sure the other guys will chip in some photos too.
This is the entrance slope shaft
One of the few remaining areas with arched roof supports
The second slope shaft - securely sealed
More to follow....
