Exposed Units: Avon Group
This disused quarry is a private site, part of the owner’s garden.
The quarry exposes thinly bedded sandstones, and shales overlain by more massive limestones. Some beds show ripple marks, current-bedding and desiccation cracks showing that the sediment was laid down where the water was shallow or dried out completely. Fossils of brachiopods and crinoids have been found.
