Wildlife

Before it was a farm, the land was a quarry which produced the slate for roofs in the area. Last worked in 1840,  the quarry has been left to nature and a mature woodland has self-seeded there with ponds. The area now supports a wide variety of wildlife including, foxes, hedgehogs, heron, moor hens, pheasants, buzzards, frogs and ducks.

Join our community of Quarries Farm Friends and you can come regularly to sit in our hides and meet the  wildlife who live here.
