Great photograph. I would love to have seen what Broomhill quarry looked like before it was filled in and a car park was built at the end of River View. I have been to Bristol's record office to see if they have any old photo's of the quarry,but unfortunately they did not have any.
Quarrying for pennant sandstone was still taking place in the valley in the 1950s as this photo by John Dike shows.

The photos are great - any chance we could see all of the winning entries? (I didn't have time to make it to the school.)
