Parking and Approach

Parking as for The Works. To approach the quarry take the path as for The Works but leave for a small track to the right of the active quarry (stay clear of crumbling edge of this active quarry) and arrive at a flat mossy area. Pass this to a higher terrace and then pass an old tunnel entrance, traverse scree to 2 old quarry buildings, head up the steps and Bakestone is on the left.
