Northcliffe Quarry is a former limestone quarry, now a Local Nature Reserve and Site of Scientific Interest, located along the Conisbrough side of The Crags. The quarry was used to extract limestone for making fertilizer, and a tramway, known as "the incline", carried the stone to the kilns, according to Doncaster Council. The quarry is part of The Crags, a rocky outcrop with historical significance for local transport, communication, and defense, according to Doncaster Council.
