No Chris, never been to, or even seen, Stoke Hall quarry but I believe it still operates. I did do a few loads from Darlton though and got ‘stitched up’ each time, and nearly went into Goddards once but got a better offer just in time!Never been to Eyam either, despite living here since 1975, I’m not 100% certain that it is plague free yet!

I did a lot of work out of Darlton in the late 80s , bagged retardamac and concrete crane off load , they even gave me a set of redundant forks for the crane . Also a lot of stone to garden centres as well . If it was slack on the bags I got a tipping trailer on bulk retardamac I made good money there as all the deliveries were East Anglia Water as far down as Felixtow . Last time I went in there was about 2001 or 2 for building stone , I don’t know how long it was open after that . Only went in Goddard once in the 80s , rates were abysmal .
