Niblett (1981) in his book, 'Memories of Bradford on Avon' refers to this quarry as Combe Quarry and locates it at the rear of the Alec Moulton Developments. Hoever, there are two entrances into two separate quarries, Combe Quarry 1 and 2.
Bradford on Avon 6
Alternative Names: Kingston Farm Quarry, Moultons Quarry, Bradford on Avon 6, Hall's Quarry
Notes: Apart from the reference in Niblett (1981), nothing is known of the history of this quarry. An MRO rescue map has this as a single entrance quarry known as Bradford on Avon 6. The area was in the process of being developed for a housing estate in 2017. It is possible that the Kingston Farm roundabout broke through into these working in July 2016 - see the Kingston Farm Collapse entry in the registry.
