Trowbarrow Quarry

Great dramatic place to explore. Geology is very interesting, as is the history and the natural elements. Can watch climbers clambering. Fossils common on the rocks. Some useful info boards. Easy place to walk round and several good linking footpaths.

Actually, there wasn't many people about except for some climbers and some young boys using the cycle circuit that was there..man made by them I think, but a lovely quiet area to have a picnic and safe for young children to be free and run wild. Also for dog lovers , which we are. Watching those people climb made my legs wobble...respect!! Beautiful in all seasons..

Awesome place, nature reserve part is very easy to find but if you want to climb in Trowbarrow finding the path to it was tricky, it is opposite a parking space on the road towards the nature reserve, if you reach that you've gone too far. Climbing is really nice here!

Great climbing at this quarry. You can see ancient shell fish in the rock. An altogether nice place to climb in Lancishire

A nice, wide open area with a small course for mountain biking. When we visited, there were a lot of rock climbers enjoying themselves up the quarry walls and there are 2 Ponys that are very unphased by the presence of people.

Good for a 30 minute to 1 hour walk/ look around!

Great area for wildflowers, butterflies

Great place to visit. Nice little walk around great footpaths. Ideal for bmx bikes/ mountain bikes.

Amazing place to bike with kids, so so so lucky to have it nearby
