  • Divers Guide to Stoney Cove
    The Diver’s Guide to WELCOME TO STONEY COVE Over the last 50 years, Stoney Cove has been transformed from a flooded quarry into a state-of-the-art dive centre. Above the water, the Underwaterworld Centre and The Dive School now lead the World in scubadiving, while beneath the water it’s home to the largest inland shipwreck, The Stanegarth, and the oldest,The Gresham. From entry-level to expert diver, Stoney Cove provides a good, safe diving environment for all, at any time of the year and in almost any weather. The Stoney Cove Online Divers’ Guide is here to answer all your questions about the National Dive Centre, from advice on water visibility and wreck location to dive gear and probably the best bacon butty in Leicestershire. Dive safely! Stoney Cove l December 2012 l Fourth Edition THE HISTORICAL BIT Stoney Cove wasn’t always the UK’s number-one dive site. In the 1800s, Stoney Cove was a granite quarry, providing road-building materials for Isambard Kingdom Brunel et al. But there was a problem: spring water and lots of it. Pumps were used to prevent the quarry from flooding, but in 1958 this stopped and the quarry workings vanished beneath the water. Within five years the flooded quarry was already popular with local pioneers of diving and waterskiing. In 1963, the British Sub Aqua Club named Stoney Cove: The National Dive Centre. North Sea Oil had a great deal to do with how Stoney Cove developed. During the 1960s and 70s, the place was used to train commercial divers en route to the North Sea.
