About Millbrook Quarry
Millbrook Quarry, also known as Lake Millbrook, is a closed freshwater quarry site in Haymarket, Virginia. It was historically used for training and checkout dives from both beaches, with a shallow side for beginner work and a deeper artifact side for more advanced exploration. Since public diving was reported closed in 2020, the useful planning frame is historical rather than active.
