Dinorwic quarry (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Dinorwic quarry (/dɪˈnɔːrwɪɡ/ din-OR-wig; Welsh: [dɪˈnɔrwɪɡ]; also known as Dinorwig quarry) is a large former slate quarry, now home to the Welsh National Slate Museum, located between the villages of Llanberis and Dinorwig in Wales. At its height at the turn of the century, it was the second largest slate quarry in Wales (and thus, the world), after the neighbouring Penrhyn quarry near Bethesda. Dinorwic covered 700 acres (283 ha) consisting of two main quarry sections with 20 galleries in each. Extensive internal tramway systems connected the quarries using inclines to transport slate between galleries. Since its closure in 1969, the quarry has become the site of the National Slate Museum, a regular film location, and an extreme rock climbing destination.

In passato, è stata la seconda cava di ardesia più grande attiva nel Galles e nel mondo, superata solo dalla vicina cava di Penrhyn vicino a Bethesda. Quando attiva, ricopriva circa 283 ettari costituiti da due sezioni principali con 20 gallerie ciascuna e una serie di sottosezioni ausiliari. Estesi sistemi tranviari interni collegavano le varie sezioni affrontando le pendenze naturali per trasportare l'ardesia tra le gallerie.
