About
The Coldstones Cut is a monumental piece of public sculpture by Andrew Sabin, situated atop Coldstones Quarry near Pateley Bridge in the Yorkshire Dales. The artwork transforms a deep limestone quarry into an immersive maze of streets, platforms and towering stone walls, rising 1,375 feet above sea level. Visitors wander along winding pathways that open onto dramatic vistas overlooking the rolling Dales, while the quarry below buzzes with trucks and blasting, offering a living contrast between art and industry. Open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and free to the public, the site invites casual strolls, family explorations, and reflective pauses in a landscape that blends natural beauty with engineered grandeur.
