Quarry Lane Crossing - This is the formal name, however it is colloquially known as Lotties Crossing (See reference on Lottie Edwards). The crossing was converted to an open automatic crossing in the mid eighties, and therefore no longer requires a crossing keeper.[route 1]
Historically this location was also known as Minffordd Crossing, but there are two other crossings in the area, this being the only one over a public road.
