Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Old millstone quarry, Millstone Edge The quarries here were used to make millstones from as early as 1604 possibly to supply a mill at Holystone. By the 19th century, the quarry was abandoned. Over 100 whole and broken millstone rough-outs can still be seen, as can the ruins of three workers’ huts http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/catalogue/collections/nsmr03abstracts/1168.html http://www.northumberlandnationalpark.org.uk/harbottlemillsquarry
