Bronze Age Gold from Wales

Pentre Gwenlais Quarry, slide

Robin, Dean (Photographer)

Standard gauge steel hopper wagons at Pentre Gwenlais Limestone Quarry, near Llandebie. The one nearer the camera is on a dilapidated wooden underframe. Rail traffic to Pentre Gwenlais (Llandebie Lime Works) ceased in 1959 and the line had been removed completely by 1965. The steel hoppers suggest a circa 1950s conversion date.
