This looks like Bole Hill Quarry which is at
SK2479 !
The stone from this quarry was used to construct the mighty Derwent and Howden Dams. Royal Assent for the reservoirs was granted in 1899 and the first two dams, Howden and Derwent, were constructed between 1901 and 1916. The site, above Grindleford railway station, at Bole Hill Quarry, was chosen to supply around 1.2million tons of stone for the reservoir walls and new railway infrastructure was constructed to support the quarrying operation.
What is the reference to "The Embankment" - is this a Rock Climbers name ?
