Hodge Close Quarry, near Coniston, Cumbria, England. The slate quarry was worked until the 1960's, but is now flooded to a depth of over 100 feet. There are several tunnels running off the quarry underwater. These are very popular with divers, despite the fact that several divers have died at the site. The quarry is surrounded by walls of green slate, and are popular with abseilers. A blue buoy marks the spot where a transit van lies on the floor of the quarry.
