Millstone Quarry and 'Cioch Block' 2 HDR - sepia

Millstone Quarry and 'Cioch Block' 2 HDR - sepia
The southern end of Burbage Edge has been extensively quarried for millstone manufacture, probably mostly in the 19th century. This particular quarry has an amazing prow-like pillar of rock left standing ("The Cioch Block"). Higger Tor is visble in the far distance.

This photo is sepia version of an HDR photo posted previously.
