Rough road rising towards Raisby Quarries
Rough road rising towards Raisby Quarries
There now seems to be a single massive excavation at Raisby quarries - perhaps the plural name came from the amalgamation of a number of lesser workings. The road is probably no longer used as an access route for any of the workings; it's marked on OS maps as an 'other route with public access'.
The village of Kelloe accounts for most of the built-up area in the distance.
