A Found Granite Quarry
We found an old granite quarry on my land last weekend. This quarry is not on the maps. John theorizes that it was an exploratory quarry and when seams of quartz were found, it was abandoned. But there is evidence that the granite cut here was taken off the mountain. See my Barton Mountain Granite Quarries Set for more information, history and maps.
