Monument record 7802/0/0 - Former Collyweston slate workings
Please read our guidance about the use of Northamptonshire Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
Collyweston slate was quarried and mined to provide roofing slates from roman times. There are remains of quarries on both sides of the A43. A footpath runs through the area known as 'the deeps' to the north of the A43 between Collyweston and Easton-on-the-Hill. Little remains except for overgrown surface workings and the site is now a nature reserve
