Kennall Vale is a picturesque dense woodland with rich undergrowth and open glades set on the river Kennall in 20 acres. You’ll find walking trails, waterfalls, babbling brooks and a flooded quarry in amongst the ruins of an abandoned gunpowder factory.
In its heyday the factory was a 50-building complex producing gunpowder for the mining industry from 1812 until it closed around 100 years later. It’s not a typical tourist destination, but if you enjoy exploring abandoned buildings then this one is worth visiting!
Under the tree canopy everything is covered in green moss with ferns and trees growing within many of the old buildings. The old quarry is flooded and has a granite rock face rising out of the clear water.
