Portland Stone, building stone
White - Limestone
The quarry at Bowers has been operational since the late 1700’s. It has been leased by us from The Crown Estate since 1979 and in 2002 it became the site of the first Portland Stone mine. Extraction from this site is now completely underground with the original Bowers Mine in the extreme southern end of the quarry and the High Wall Extraction on the eastern and south east boundaries.
