Summary[edit]

Description
English: Llanddulas quarry Originally this quarry exploited extremely pure beds of Carboniferous Limestone which was exported from the jetty to steelworks in Belgium. Extraction has now ceased, but the void is the primary destination of domestic and other waste for the Conwy County Borough. The black sheeting is an impermeable geomembrane to contain potential leachates and gases. Drainage is installed to produce a methane-rich gas which is burned at power plant just visible in the upper centre of the picture. Power from rubbish - bring it on!
