Fairfield County Rock Quarry

The 10 Acre Blue Granite Rock was originally part of a land grant by King George III in the Backcountry of the Carolina colony. Later was part of holdings of the Kincaid-Anderson family. The quarry opened in 1898 and ceased operations completely in 1986.

I think I've never seen one before, that I can recall.

And I like your album.

These show me an environment that I am completely unfamiliar with.

Thank you for sharing!
