Artist's Description
Dinorwic was at one time the second largest slate quarry in the world.
It was quarried for more than 200 years, and at its peak it employed over 3000 people. But the work was hard, really hard.
Before the arrival of modern transport, quarrymen traveled on foot from as far afield as Anglesey each week, crossing the Menai Straits, or walking up from Caernarfon on a Sunday evening and staying in the quarry barracks until Saturday lunchtime, when they returned to their families and communities for only 24 hours before starting their return journey to work.
A cup of tea and something to eat, would seem more than a welcome break under those hours and working conditions.
