Amherst Quarries Witnesses Vast Stone Industry
A Chronicle-Telegram reporter toured the Cleveland Quarries Co operations near Amherst six miles northwest of Elyria. Five quarries Buckeye No 6 No 6X No 7 and No 7X plus a Birmingham site, cover six to seven hundred acres. Buckeye is deepest at 214 feet and one mile across. No 6 is the largest at a mile and a half in circumference. Heavy derricks and steam power move immense blocks to cars and saw mills as workers quarry stone for shaping into durable construction material. The Amherst quarries form a vast, ongoing project driving local growth and industrial expansion.
