Tarmac Halecombe Quarry and Asphalt Plant

Been a very long time since I graced this fine location with my presence, new sheds are in situ now, along with a modern set of weighbridges, in my distant memory I seem to remember a shed like structure and decending to the very bottom of the quarry to load in fading light, well all change and welcome to the 21st century. Today I was delivering and it was relatively painless given the fact the shovel/machine was goosed and like buses 3 of us arrived at the same time to tip the same product ...but fear ye not it was all handled with the upmost professionalism that we all come to expect from Tarmac..... Accessed the quarry from the A37 which shaved off a good 10 miles than as previously following the road through to Shepton Mallet and in off the A361, a sign helpfully points to quarries and to coin a familiar phrase follow your nose and Halcombe quarry signs appear....have some faith baby
