Some time ago,Pen yr Orsedd was featured in BBC`s `restoration` series,and it was hoped that some of the quarrys buildings and machinery might be restored to serve as a workshop/engineering centre.At the time it was quite a big issue,Bryn Terfel the singer got involved etc.
Does anyone know if anymore is being done regarding this matter?I believe the remaining cableway is a scheduled listed monument,and some of the buildings are listed ,though how this works in what is (though mothballed) a working quarry under Lagan/Rigcycle ownership is a bit of a mystery.
