Lothersdale Quarry

I was looking on line today and it seems that Lothersdale Quarry has now been flooded.
I remember when we used to drive from Bradford to Earby in the early to mid 1960's we would take the road which went through the actual quarry.
If they were blasting, this section of the road would be closed to traffic and you had to drive the longer way around, skirting the quarry itself.
Here's the start of the road in Crosshills in 1965.
