Name and dates

Easter Mylnefield Quarry

Served by the Dundee and Perth Railway.

Description

This quarry produced stone for Castle Huntly and docks in London. The quarry is flooded. The Dundee and Perth Railway crossed it by a girder viaduct (6 spans?) which was converted into an embankment in 1973 with infill on both sides of, and underneath, the line.

A siding existed, on the south side of the line and approached from the west, just to the west of the quarry.
