Hello I was talking to a old friend the other day and we were talking about what places were like years ago he said Anne Barbers Riding school was on Silverdale road and that there was a quarry on there and some fields and at the top of Silverdale Road now there was a gate you couldn't get down there it wasn't a road

 

Does anyone remember the Quarry and the fields what was mined at the quarry and what was on the fields?

 

Thanks Jack!

I found out that they used to mine ganister rock on the quarry.

Hi JackKo Have just read your post! I used to go to Ann Barbers riding school in Silverdale and remember the quarry very well. We used to stop at the bottom then set of and gallop all the way to the top those horses sure knew their way home, couldn't stop them , very scary!!!
