Quarry, Derry, Co. Galway
Co. Galway |
Mining
Near the townland of Derry in County Galway, a disused gravel pit sits quietly in the landscape, the kind of feature that accumulates more silence than significance over the years.
Gravel pits of this sort were once common working features of the Irish countryside, dug to supply material for road-making, farm tracks, and local construction, then abandoned once the useful deposits were exhausted.
