derrick and its "bull wheel" wetland protection, conservation

Green quarry, full of ground water, at the top of the one-way, winch rail line. Remnants remain of three wooden derricks, an engine house and "tugger" winch (1893) which retracted a rail car from the end of an extensive quarry dump. Parts of two derricks are obvious within the quarry hole while the third, "stiff-leg" derrick was higher up in the back SE corner of the quarry. When viewing the latter remnants one may note an excellent example of a "clovis" arrangement of hardware which is the anchor for a guy-wire attached to the top of a derrick.
