Example of the interlocking slate ridging patented by Moses Kellow and produced at Parc (this example is on the former toll house at Porthmadog, which became the offices for the Croesor quarry).
Parc Quarry was a compact underground slate quarry in the Croesor Valley, Gwynedd, North Wales. It was connected to the Croesor Tramway, which ran through the valley. The quarry concentrated on producing specialist slate products, rather than roofing slates, and was managed for much of the time by the innovator Moses Kellow. It operated for about 50 years, from 1870 to 1920.
