Quarry Moor Nature Reserve, located on the outskirts of Ripon, England, was established in 1945 through a donation from Alderman Thomas F Spence, held in trust for the benefit of the local community. Recognized for its unique geology and species-rich magnesian limestone grassland, it was designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in 1986 and is actively managed for both nature conservation and recreational use.
This valued attraction offers a tranquil habitat for a diverse range of wildlife, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in its natural beauty while adhering to rules that protect its ecological integrity. The site is overseen by the Alderman T F Spence Committee, which includes both city councillors and members of the public dedicated to preserving Quarry Moor's unique environment.
