were ars theseA few local wagons from past and present.

were are the four fodens

They were up at Longcliffe near Brassington but they went about three months ago. One of them ended up at the foden breakers in Sandbach but i don’t know where the others went. They still run some old ones internal in the quarry.

I think there is one at Conods of Barons Cross near Leominster

I took these pictures a couple of weeks ago when i was tipping a load of stone in Darlton quarry,stoney middleton

Accident near Baslow, exact location I’m thinking the roundabout near the gates to Chatsworth but can’t be sure.
