Further Information: |
These quarries were exploited on a large scale at least from the 11th century onwards at Binstead near Ryde. They were more or less worked out before the end of the Middle Ages and hence it is difficult to establish a precise location. Stone pits can be seen on the 1866 O.S. Map in the village of Binstead. |
