There is a large quarry around Coral Castle which Ed used to excavate tons and tons of rock. Many of the cut marks on this bed rock is interesting and some of them are outright bizarre. A careful look at this area might answer the most commonly asked question: "How did Edward Leedskalnin build a 1100 ton castle all by himself?" Ed referred to Coral Castle as
Rock Gate, a name that's almost completely forgotten now. Since people think of it as a castle, visitors often think of the quarry as a moat. There is a fence around the quarry now, so it was not possible to take closeup pictures.
