Clip Pack #177 – Rowley Hills Quarry Stock Footage
65 clips (Drone & Tripod Mix) | 17 minutes 10 seconds | 7.87GB | 4K UHD
Explore the dramatic landscape and ongoing transformation of the historic Rowley Hills Quarry with Clip Pack #177. This extensive collection offers a unique mix of drone and tripod footage documenting this significant Black Country site, known for its "Rowley Rag" dolerite stone and centuries of quarrying history dating back potentially to Roman times. Witness the current large-scale infill operations—a working quarry environment providing brilliant, versatile stock footage of heavy industry juxtaposed with surrounding urban and natural elements on the edge of Birmingham.
Footage Highlights:
Quarry Operations: Extensive drone shots capturing huge earthworks, digging, dusty roads spiralling deep into the quarry, top-down views, and wide establishing shots. Features tracked diggers and wheeled dumpers relentlessly working together. Includes shots of diggers laying vast amounts of soil (reportedly sourced from major infrastructure projects like HS2), trucks being weighed at the weighbridge, and a dust suppression bowser hard at work.
Industrial Details: Close-ups and aerials over machinery, site offices, stacks of materials (piping, sand, dirt), containers, and nearby industrial buildings. Includes drone take-off shots.
Safety & Signage: Footage clearly showing numerous warning signs – "Danger of Death," "Keep Out," "Dangerous Quarry" – highlighting the hazardous nature of the site, plus shots of site fencing.
Surrounding Area: Views incorporating the nearby Rowley Hills telecoms tower (serving the West Midlands), a flag on the adjacent golf course, a horse grazing in sunshine, and nearby residential streets undergoing cleaning due to heavy truck movements causing disruption for residents.
Wider Context: Distant views towards Birmingham city centre, a nearby bus station, passing cars, and even a dog walker, placing the quarry within its urban fringe setting.
Natural Elements: Shots capturing wild blackberries growing amidst the industrial setting and areas of long grass.
Versatile Views: A huge variety of shots (wides, establishing views, backgrounds, top-downs) suitable for depicting industrial sites anywhere in the world. Features heavy vehicles like pickup trucks driving through the quarry.
Perfect For:
Documentaries covering industry, quarrying, landfill, recycling, large-scale construction (like HS2 infill), or environmental transformation.
News reports on local development, infrastructure projects, or industrial activity in the Black Country/West Midlands.
TV productions needing versatile industrial backgrounds, heavy machinery footage, or establishing shots that could represent sites anywhere in the world.
