Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:No footnotes Gripwood Quarry (Шаблон:Gbmapping) is a 2.9 hectare geological Site of Special Scientific Interest at Bradford-on-Avon, Wiltshire, England, notified in 1951.

The quarry lies in a field to the south west of the Bradford-on-Avon Tithe Barn, on the south side of the River Avon. It cuts into Oolitic limestone and has a wall in the middle creating an upper and a lower quarry, last used for mushroom growing. The walls are whitewashed and there is a large wooden crane.
