Wellington Galleries at Dinorwig Quarry

GReat Galleries

Dinorwric, the quarry that ate a mountain.

Here the height of the galleries is truly staggering stretching up almost to the top of Glyn Fawr

The edifices of the galleries stacked on top of each other dwarf the building remnants and the sporadic birches reclaiming this exposed section of the galleries.

On this particular day, low lying cloud was dragging across the peaks adding to the quarry’s sense of height and scale
