The Museum is run by a group of volunteers who would welcome new colleagues as the Museum expands. If you have the spare time and think you could help in any way on site, we'd love to hear from you. You'll find it a very friendly place with lovely views and it would be entirely up to you how much time you give. You will find our contact details above.

Threlkeld Quarry is also the home of the Vintage Excavator Trust.



Do come along and join us for our working weekend and see a variety of excavators in action. All are welcome and there will be a selection of food and drinks available!

Please visit our friends at Saddleback Slate
