Little Island Limestone

Notes:

Light to dark grey, close grained, compact, works freely. The limestone in Rock Farm Quarry (West) is of the Little Island Formation - massive and crinoidal fine, light grey limestone. Limestone from the Rock Farm (West) quarry is said to be of better quality, less fractured, lighter in colour and easier to work than the limestone from the Rock Farm Quarry (East), which is partly of the Clashavodig Formation - oolitic, peloidal, cherty, fine limestone.
