the base of the incline up into the Moelfferna Quarry.

Looking back along the valley from the base of the
incline up into Moelfferna Quarry. In the distance the Deeside Slab
Quarry can be seen at the top right of the photograph.
In the foreground is the pit into which the incline transporter ran. The
transporter allowed the wagons to be kept level while they were being taken up
and down the incline.
The remains of the transporter were near the top of the incline and are shown
in a later page in this series. |
