NB - North is at 4 o'clock. Going by the pattern of the roads, I think this is the area on GoogleMapsSatellite -
www.google.com
The brown area on the satellite is marked as bog on the map. -

Bottom right(-ish) is "Clonbrock Desmene". Is that our old friends, the Dillons, and The Great Augusta ?

Here's a "Pin" placed where the 48 is in that triangular pink field on the right above. Note Google map is rotated such as North is facing SE as per map above.

“Warke’s Quarry Castlerock
As with many of the small villages in the Causeway Coast quarrying provided employment for locals as well as a ready supply of building material.
Castlerock, with its mainline railway connection was no different. Warke’s Quarry was established just behind the village, and the basalt here was worked for many years.
This Basalt was often used for railway balast.
This old photograph shows some of the quarry workings and the road leading to the village of Castlerock.”

I wonder in what year the siding was closed.
