This extensive pit working was located on the lower west slopes of Moel Tryfan, south of Rhosgadfan, and was part of a cottager-quarryman landscape. It began as a small site that expanded rapidly during the 1880s, following rail connection, with 81 men producing 1880 tons in 1882. By 1898 236 men were employed. Material was taken by tunnel to a substantial mills area where guillotine dressers are believed to have been used, unusual in this area. The quarry produced a variety of coloured slates. Finished product went down a long incline to the Bryngwyn drumhead (SH49765609). Water power was used though mill steam engines were installed as an auxiliary to water power. De Winton locomotives were used. A cableway and rail system was used here but was superseded in 1966 by Matador dumper- lorries, with their good off-road performance. Latterly, when workings broke into the adjacent Alexandra quarry (NPRN 400656) material from that quarry was reduced in the two Moel Tryfan mills. The quarry continued working on a small scale into the 1970s.nThe site has since been much disturbed by bulkfill operations and the tunnel has gone. Extensive traces of the mills area survive along with the quarter mile-long incline.nnFILMING EQUIPMENT:-nnBOYA BY-M1 3.5 mm Lavalier Microphonenamzn.to/2GgbU1QnnCanon EOS 200dnamzn.to/2pyLK4jnnCanon 10-18 STM Lensnamzn.to/2Gbuv3bnnK&F CMP3134 Carbon Monopod Standn: goo.gl/Y3tmj9nnXiaomi Yi 4K Action Camnamzn.to/2Fas2DgnnPanasonic DMC-G7 Compact System Cameranamzn.to/2o3urbCnnnJoby GorillaPod Hybrid Tripod for Compact System Cameras with Integrated Ballheadnamzn.to/2HqZEO0 nnZoom H1 Portable Digital Recordernamzn.to/2sAnROrnnRØDE VideoMic GO On Camera Microphonenamzn.to/2Ho6uDPnnM8 UHF Wireless Lavalier Microphonenamzn.to/2odzRjtnnSamyang 12 mm F2.0 Manual Focus Lens for Micro Four Thirdsnamzn.to/2Cr920knnSamyang 7.5 mm Fisheye F3.5 Manual Focus Lens for Micro 4/3namzn.to/2o7R5zlnnDJI Phantom 4 Pronamzn.to/2CqW6Y7nnZhiyun Crane M 3-Axis Stabilizer Gimbal namzn.to/2sydtXrnnPHOTOGRAPHY EQUIPMENR:-nnCanon EOS 5D Mkiinamzn.to/2HquiXsnnCanon 16-35 mm f/4 EF L IS USM Lensnamzn.to/2HnbnginnCanon EF 24-70 mm f/4 L IS USM Lensnamzn.to/2FbGf2UnnTamron 70-200 F/2.8 VC USD Canon Mountnamzn.to/2oa14n4nnCanon EF 50 mm 1.8 STM Lensnamzn.to/2ogOFhonnManfrotto 055 Aluminium 3 Section Tripod with Horizontal Columnnamzn.to/2sAuHTTnnManfrotto Befree Aluminium Travel Tripod with Ball Head - Blacknamzn.to/2obh2gGnnTC2534 Carbon Tripod Monopod Kit for DSLR Camera 66 inch/168cm Ball Head nwww.kentfaith.com/KF09.010?nnK&F Concept Travel Backpackngoo.gl/TUJ4Mo nnLowepro 100 S&F Filter Pouchnamzn.to/2o83u6onnLEE Filters 100mm System Foundation Kitnamzn.to/2sASmUnnnLee Filters FHNDGSS Soft Graduated Neutral-Density Resin Filter Kitnamzn.to/2EAwk5SnnHeliopan 105mm Slim High Transmission Circular Polarizer SH-PMC Filter (710562) with specialty Schott glass in floating brass ringnamzn.to/2FaT39t
