Exploring Woolton Quarry Hidden Tunnels Urban Exploring - Liverpool - September - 2020 -

[@billgibbons7334]

I vaguely remember this place from when I was a lad living in Woolton, in the late 1940's. It was open to the public now and again and there were events held down there, I don't know what these events actually were, maybe garden fetes or charity fund raisers, but i do remember the quarry floor was landscaped and set out as gardens. The tunnel was another way of getting in and out, quite an adventure to me and other lads, it came up to the level of the park by a flight of steps up against the wall of a building and you had nto go through a gate to get to it. It's quite a while since I've been to the park so maybe the steps have been filled in now.

Think I remember hearing this was an "overflow " quarry to the main one in Quarry Street...my great grandfather was the Quarry manager and is buried in St Peter's Church ,Woolton

Boss vid George only just come across it 👍 the car is mega any chance of a vid on this sometime ( unless you already have one) I’m a 60 year old big kid from the Dingle and I want one 😂🏎️

[@caravb5906]

Very interesting. My auntie lived on Quarry Street above and below a shop. Her sitting room downstairs led onto a massive garden backing on to the quarry wall. I am sure I remember a gated locked door in the quarry wall

The local legend I heard growing up was when the park was the grounds of a lords home that area was his ladies private glade/garden and the tunnel was her way in and out.

[@g2emedia1977]

Wow thats great info cheers

[@PorcelainPorcupine]

Last time I went down there was 2012, I've just checked my photos and yep back then that end bit on the left was indeed mostly bricked up, seems like someone took the initiative to do a bit of demolition, shame it didn't open up to a load more tunnels. Great video by the way.

[@g2emedia1977]

Thanks for watching pity it doesn't go anywhere that tunnel

[@CRMediaTV]

Genuinely didn’t even know this was there . Go Raynolds all the time but go in via church road which is probably why I’ve never noticed that gate …great video

[@g2emedia1977]

Cheers glad you liked it

Maps show that quarry as disused in the 1890's. The quarries on the other side of Woolton would have supplied stone for the Anglican Cathedral.

[@g2emedia1977]

Ahh right cheers for that info

[@nevillemason6791]

@@g2emedia1977 I remember the quarry supplying stone for the cathedral in the 1960s. It was off Quarry Street (Reynolds Park is off Church Rd.). There's a new road called 'The Old Quarry' so I presume that's the exact location. Part of the disused part of the quarry was a large tyre dump that caught fire about 1970. It burned for several days.

[@angeladavies993]

The tunnels and the arched ceilings are so well built any idea what they were used for so much stone was taken from above ground. I just don't understand why the tunnels were so well built.

[@g2emedia1977]

im due to go back here after the hols for a detailed look around very well built indeed appsrently used to connect quarries

[@HauntedScouse]

[@SocieteRoyale]

very nicely build tunnel, but what was the purpose I wonder? Where did it access?

[@g2emedia1977]

A bloke in the park local to the are told me it was access to the other quarries

[@garysimpson3900]

I have always wondered what was behind that iron gate.

[@g2emedia1977]

Its well worth a look really interesting

[@Dunny1]

Boss that, the Council should clean and open it up instead of leaving it as a dumping ground.

[@g2emedia1977]
