Ridge Lane

Ridge Lane was dug c. 1989 – 1992 by myself and Rob Taviner, while we both resided in the East Harptree area, with the occasional assistance of others including Tony Jarratt. Shaft approx. 7 metres deep in [silicified] dolomitic conglomerate, very hard going, to no real conclusion. Interest waned when we both moved out the immediate area, other projects took priority and the farmer started tipping waste around the depression. The depression, photographed on 31st December 2012, is now almost completely filled.
