    Hiking

    Heyshaw Quarry primarily mined lead ore. Additionally, the area also featured lime kilns and evidence of quarrying for millstones. The mine was worked until 1805 and there are now quite characteristic spoil heaps located to the side of the public footpath that heads north to Guise Cliff.
