Saw it much worse than that at Barmouth in, I think, 1982. Driving along the prom and a wave at least 20 feet higher than the sea wall hit the car and stopped it dead! And as for those morons at the end...brain dead!

The concrete structures are called DOLOS and they were all constructed in the quarry. I don't know if they used that channel to get some down to the beach where they have been placed. I don't know if they used sea water for mixing the concrete to mould them either. What surprises me is the fact that there was thousands of tonnes of rock and boulders that had been blasted in the quarry before it closed and it could of been used in place of DOLOS.

The concrete building was the 'Gunpowder Magazine' It was surrounded by a 2 metre stone wall and had a sturdy metal entrance door . The interior was lined with pitch pine boards. The gunpowder was delivered in thick cardboard boxes, by lorry from Cookes Explosives a company that manufactured it at Penrhyndeudraeth. Detonators for blasting purposes and fuses etc. were all stored there. Before entering the store quarry workers hob nailed boots were to be removed in case they caused sparking on the concrete floor, and replaced with a soft pair of 'Magazine Slippers.' Harry Foulkes who was the 'Blaster' never removed his hob nailed boots to enter and he would stand in the doorway smoking a Woodbine. I shudder when looking back to the risks taken by the quarry men in those days before Health and Safety. It was a time when 'Common Sense' prevailed and there were seldom any accidents. Thanks for your very interesting filming. I have many happy memories of working at the quarry during school holidays 1960-63.
