SH6846 : Main incline

taken 6 years ago, near to Tanygrisiau, Gwynedd, Wales

Main incline
Main incline
The main incline which descended from the upper levels of the quarry to the Cross and London mills is shown optimistically on the modern OS map at larger scales, but like the mills that it served it has now gone. It is cut by a modern haul-road at this point, and never resurfaces from beneath more recent tipping. My assistant Tegid is indicating how it used to work.
