 Head towards the Town of Spittal. There is a small petrol station and a few houses, but the village is signposted.

 The quarry is on the right hand side (from the South), you will notice an old hall building with a community information board in the grounds of the car park. Directly after this to the North is a track lane with a height barrier, this is the road to the quarry, follow it down to the reception. Please contact the quarry owners and seek permission prior to any visit.
