Merehead Quarry : ウィキペディア英語版
Torr Works

Torr Works quarry, is a limestone quarry at East Cranmore, near Shepton Mallet on the Mendip Hills, Somerset, England. The quarry was formerly known as Merehead, a name which has been retained for its rail depot on the opposite side of the A361 road.
The site covers an area of some 205 hectares, including 60 hectares which have been landscaped to blend with the surrounding countryside.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.southampton.ac.uk/~imw/Mendip-Hills.htm )〕 It has been operated by Aggregate Industries since their take over of Foster Yeoman in 2006.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.bgs.ac.uk/mendips/localities/torr.html )〕 The site employs over 250 people and produces 7.5 million tonnes of limestone annually which is carried directly from the quarry by Mendip Rail.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.aggregate.com/global/planning/torr%20quarry/plannning-torr-leaflet.pdf )
A Geodiversity audit of the site recorded pale to dark grey well bedded Carboniferous Limestone dipping consistently southwards with a small area of overlying horizontally bedded buff-coloured Jurassic oolitic limestone forming an angular unconformity.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Geodiversity Audit of Active Aggregate Quarries: Quarries in Somerset )
