 Prospecting for the quarry started in January 1868, however it was not until January 1877 that a quarry opened in the ravine.This quarry appears to have been initially successful, however a major storm in August 1880 brought the quarry into a terminal decline and it closed in April 1884.In 1958, a footbridge was built over the railway immediately west of the station, to provide more direct access to the Dolgoch Falls.
