The photo above is of Harvey Brown and his workmates, Harvey is centre front row wearing a tie. There were many stoneworkers in the area, and quite a few quarries, the previous two pages are mainly dealing with the actual quarries and how the stone was used locally, this page has been inspired by Margaret Heyday who very kindly sent along the photo above.
