Disused quarry above Mutton Cove
The wall of large stone blocks is the seaward wall of a disused quarry near the top of the cliff above Mutton Cove. Above the Portland Freestone quarried at the site are the basal Purbeck strata (thin beds of limestone). A party of young rock climbers are at the base of the vertical cliff below the old quarry wall.
