HISTORY
Bethel quarry started some time in the 19th century. When work had finished it was used for the site of a mushroom farm. During WW11 the war department used it as storage. After the war it was used as a mushroom farm again till 2010
THE EXPLORE
I spent a good 90 minutes or so mooching around the quarry. Nice easy decent down the ladder; I found it a bit knackering going back up though lol. There's still a heck of a lot of crap down there from the raided cannabis factory. It was a nice little explore; I feel sure I didn't see all of it. I'd have stayed longer if I didn't have other things I wanted to do in Bradford-on-Avon. I enjoyed the fact it's quite a decent size. I kept thinking it would make a cool place for a game of Hide & Seek.
I'm planning to go back sometime with a mate and have a good long explore.
