A rapid survey of the quarries was undertaken by J Robertson of SCAU for SCC’s Planning Dept, as part of an ongoing project on Areas of Historic Landscape Value. A small quarry at TQ 203 512 may equate with one shown on Rocque’s map c.1768. The tracks ‘White Road’ and ‘Red Road’ that run past the quarries are holloways and may, therefore, have early origins. (314, 321) Interim report published on work carried out by the Wealden Cave & Mine Society and the Kent Underground Research Group at Brockham Quarry. Excavation of the brick lined haulage shaft (at TQ 198 510) revealed its base 17.63m below ground level. Two openings led off from the bottom of the shaft, approximately opposite each other, with narrow gauge rails leading between them. Excavation of these two passages is now ongoing. (SIHG 91)
