Ecology related not caving, but does anyone know which quarry this name would apply to?  I have just a 4 fig gird ref SK1373 which doesn't help much. I'm wondering if it is an old name for either Tunstead or Cowdale Quarry.  Any ideas which of the many quarries would have perhaps been called East Buxton Lime Quarry?

Cheers

East Buxton Lime Kilns are the big concrete structures between Millers Dale station and the abseiling bridge, I guess its the quarry behind them

I found that website a shortly after posting and comparing details there with historic maps concluded that it was that site nr Millers Dale Station. Mark Noble also pm'd me with same location.  Makes sense as it was with reference to an old glow-worm record and Millers Dale is also a known location for the species.
