Summary

The 'Old Quarry' is labelled and illustrated on both the First Edition 25 inch Ordnance Survey map of between the 1880’s-90’s and the Second Edition 25 inch Ordnance Survey map of between 1904-06. An adjacent field to the north is recorded as 'Quarry Park' on the Wembury tithe apportionment of approximately 1838-48, suggesting the quarry may be earlier in date. It is depicted as an earthwork on the Ordnance Survey 2015 MasterMap.
