Rock Hole Alum Quarry was started by John Atherton of Skelton Castle in 1604 and was the earliest in the district and the first success works in the whole country.
Despite being idle from hundreds of years, little vegetation ever grows back.
Hello
This quarry has not been idle for hundreds of years
I reopened it in the 1990s to quarry stone to form the embankment on Guisborough By Pass.
