Ham Hill's Pits of Peril Walk

See the pits, cliff faces and spoil heaps of Ham Hill through the eyes of Victorian and Edwardian quarry workers! 

In this walk, we’ll be exploring parts of the golden hillfort that many of you may have never seen before; the Deep Quarries. Down here, we'll talk of the geology and history of Hamstone, and how the history of powered flight was nearly changed forever.
