This disused quarry is situated in an area of rough pasture immediately WNW of the track-bed of the former Wick to Lybster light railway some 240m SE of Mill Farm. It measures about 7.5m in diameter and has been dug to a depth of 1.2m into the slope on the W, but the interior has recently been partly filled in with builder¿s rubbish. The quarry is not depicted on either the 1st or 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map (Caithness 1877, sheet xxix; 1907, sheet xxix).
