Cown Edge Quarry
Cown Edge Quarry
The smaller of two roughly circular quarries that can be found in close proximity on Cown Edge. In the distance is the A624 Glossop to Hayfield Road, if you look closely you can just make out the Grouse Inn. The Dark Peak area of the Peak District rises up to the horizon in the distance.
