Reference: Nicknamed as ‘Red-a-ven Quarry’ for want of a name to identify this quarry, Colin Yelland on Dartmoor 1044 Facebook comments; “…this one is also called Meldon Quarry as well as the main one! It was operated by ECC Quarries Ltd and closed in about 1972. Part was leased from Okehampton Hamlets PC and part was owned by ECC. ECC gave OHPC the land they owned when the quarry closed so all now owned by OHPC.”
