That's why I added the proviso about standard carto. OpenRailwayMap renders disused/abandoned railways. As does (for unknown reasons) French carto. And anything that is tagged can be rendered by uMap with appropriate overpass-turbo queries.

It is fairly standard on UK maps in general to render, or at least label, disused quarries. Because they're holes in the ground, can present hazards, and may be of use for navigation. So in this particular case I prefer landuse=quarry + disused=yes to disused:landuse=quarry. A working quarry observed on a Sunday may be difficult to distinguish from a disused quarry. Tagging for the renderer or choosing between valid alternative tagging schemes? I tag, you decide. -- Paul
