Another quarry? Or some old caves?

[@tabascoraremaster1]

Excellent location for a small rave. ☺

[@MindfulExposures]

Much respect Nicky! Excellent video! 💫💖✨

[@youn8e]

there was identifying marks on the Terra cotta tile ... have you researched the origins⁉💜

[@NickyBsHistory]

I have but not had much look at the moment but still looking😎💚

[@wideyxyz2271]

Something I have noticed when looking at old photos (mostly railways and canals) the lack of trees and foliage in them yet modern photos of the same places are absolutely lush with greenery!

[@NickyBsHistory]

I've noticed this aswell.. I did a little video on it last year and appears quite alot of the trees etc are recent additions but thats just my take on it..😎💚

Hey Nicki b, the part you tried to climb at the end would of originally had a rope to help and the feet hole would of been like climbing a ladder, it's very hard to climb without a rope as you saw. Wether or not it started off as a cave then quarried into a big open space for storage ( you would be surprised how many ammo dumps there are scattered around mostly for territorial and teaching foreign forces but anyway, you asked why small brick rooms and pillars holding up the roof might be all about. When storing ammo you want to pack it into small2,5 MTRS areas usually with another wall around about 300ml gap between the first and second wall ( for containing the blast should an accident happen) the colours are added to stop a collapse of the roof , the tiles would have been layed so the floor is nice and smooth to push sack trolleys or similar loaded with explosives and not have them fall off. Just a thought you may find more info at declassified MOD maybe. Hope that might of helped, thanks for showing us around, take care👍😊

[@NickyBsHistory]

Thanks for thr info Peter.. It wasn't too hard to climb just tricky on thr day due to wet and muddy boots.. Ive seen better examples at other places that i need to revisit to get some footage.. It was more the sandstone pillars i was referring to as opposed to the odd brick one.. I'll see if i can find any info on the place but doesnt appear to be any/many records from what I've seen so far.. I'll update if/when i find anything..😎💚

[@ceilconstante640]

Definitely not a quarry. It is a wonder there's no interest in excavation and preservation. Thank you for the tour!

[@NickyBsHistory]

Exactly my thoughts when i visit most of these places!! More needs to be done to preserve these places.. 😎💚

[@bmmaaate]

Always look at the markings on bricks or tiles. You can look up the manufacturers and even if the business is closed it might help to date when the work was done.

[@NickyBsHistory]

I do have a couple of tiles but still trying to find the origins.. Will hopefully update as soon as i find anything😎💚

[@tabascoraremaster1]

When no marks on the bricks it starts to get even more interesting

[@djsiimz]

I dont no why people leave rubbish in there it doesn't look like a quarry to me 👍

[@magdastar1709]

You dont lay floors in quarrys. We know troglodytes lived in the caves at Kinver maybe it was more dwellings for the troglodytes

[@NickyBsHistory]

Yeah stands to good reason and my spidey senses are telling me the same thing😎💚

[@zawiszaaustralia]

quarry it is not, this cave looks natural but has been adopted for a purpose, who knows what and when... sometimes bricks or tiles have markings that would give you something to follow

[@NickyBsHistory]

I do have a few tiles from there which im still trying to trace origins.. Hopefully find out something soon 😎💚

[@NickyBsHistory]

Yup infuriates me mate.. But those types are helping destroy these places so doubt official types will do much to stop it🤦‍♂️😎💚
