Bagalow Quarry is a disused slate quarry between Tintagel and Trebarwith at Bagalow Cove on the north coast of Cornwall, South West England. The quarry was worked from the 1830s into the early part of the twentieth century.
The quarry site cuts a sharp right angle into the cliffs above Bagalow Cove immediately due south of Dria Quarry. The near vertical cliffs of the cove are almost entirely the work of quarrying.
Stone
The quarry provided a source of Upper Devonian slate and Lower Carboniferous slates of a greyish green colour used predominantly for roofing.
