| Description: | McGhies Quarry Thistle Plaster Works 1 m. NE of Kirkby Thore. Looking SW. General view of gypsum quarry face showing 'Top Post' as upper level mostly 'natural' eroded vertical cliff and a lower face a little of 'Top Post', and the banded Yard Post with a little of the Bottom Post below. The lower face is quarried. The gap in the Top Post in the centre of the view is a solution channel - most of this higher face shows typical smoothed surface due to solution. |
