A large stone quarry located in southwestern Woburn, on the Woburn-Winchester line. Some sources call the locality "Winchester Highlands." Quarrying began in 1913. Rock is pre-Carboniferous Salem granodiorite intruded into Pre-Cambrian Waltham gneiss. The workings were 1/3 mile long and 165 feet deep (or high at the face). There is now an industrial park on the quarry site.
