I thought I'd give this a look after reading in the Express and Star it was meant to have be closed a the end of 2018. After visiting and finding it to be quite fresh I later found it had been given a reprieve to the end of July. https://www.staffordshire.gov.uk/environment/planning/Applications-making-the-headlines.aspx
A controvesial new site in Shipley as been given the green light as it's replacement. https://www.expressandstar.com/news/2018/09/26/controversial-quarry-is-given-green-light/
Visited here over two late evenings as I ran out of daylight. The 2nd visit was earlier as you can see by the varying pictures and was lucky to just miss a thunderstorm and torrential rain on exit.
Bird houses in the side sand rock.
A mars like landscape, near to sunset with a thunderstorm brewing.
Sand titties
Didn't get a good look at the offices because of fixed cameras on the door entrances and forward facing for vehicles entering the site.
Exit via the main entrance. Good timing cos it absolutely pissed down just as I got back to the car
Thanks for looking.
