Black and white image of a wire on a small tributary of the River Derwent near Padley Gorge. Both sides feature worked stone and concrete blocks. Black and white image of a pair of rough out millstones. Black and white image of some of the remains of quarrying among the light woodland that has reclaimed the land. In the centre of the picture is a spoilheap. Black and white image of the remains of the wheelhouse of a funicular railway that transported quarried stone down to the nearby railway.
