Location | Gyrn Wigau / Caseg valley, Carneddau | SH 65202 66723; 53.18046°N, 4.01853°W | |
Information |
The quarry is located in the Caseg valley on the lower southern slopes of Gyrn Wigau. A short adit, whose entrance is on the level of the foot of the waste tip, leads into a small pit in the middle of the main extractive area. There seems to be some debate as to whether the workings here were known as Afon Gaseg or Dr Hughes Quarry.

At an altitude of 750m, Ffynnon Caseg, the source of the Caseg river, nestles high up in Cwm Caseg, bounded on three sides by the mountains Yr Elen, Canedd Llewelyn and Foel Grach. Until 1889 water from here was carried by a leat five miles long to supply power to Bryn Hafod-y-wern Slate Quarry.

Further Information |
Spoil heaps for the workings, which were on three levels, are visible from Lon Las Ogwen on the valley floor. The mine is on the 350m contour in Cwm Ceunant, on the slopes of Carnedd y Filiast in the Glyderau range. Although the entrance to the bottom adit is completely covered over by a waste heap, the entrances to the middle and top adits are still clear.
