Does anyone have grid-references for the Burtersett Quarries?
If so, I'd love to have them.......

showing how the roofing "slates" were got out at Scarhead, which Earby
museum will sell you. I have some photos which I took underground there
last year. Contact me off list if you need addresses.

> I have just read a small book on the Burtersett Quarries in North
Yorkshire, Hawes and Gayle areas by David Hall. These quarries were not open
to the surface as is usual, but tunnelled into hills in wide levels. The
quarries (mines) are East Shaw, Scarhead, Braygill, Seavy. Old and Raygill.
Any information on the above would by appreciated.
