Description
English: Locomotive Detail. Maker's plates on the side of Rusting Locomotive, Threlkeld Quarry and Mining Museum (geograph 3932401)

Threlkeld Quarry and Mining Museum

Threlkeld Quarry, which is situated three miles east of Keswick, originally opened in 1870 to supply railway ballast to the Penrith-Keswick line. Later, the stone was used by the Manchester Corporation Waterworks for their Thirlmere scheme, for railway ballast for the Crewe-Carlisle line, for roadstone, kerbing and for facing buildings with dressed stone. The granite quarry finally closed in 1982 and is now the site for the Threlkeld Quarry & Mining Museum which is run by a group of volunteers.
