Hello everyone this is a ironstone mine me and my friend visited before Christmas last year , this mine is a brilliant one ,so see have hundreds of photos of it ,still holds so much original stuff inside was unbelievable on the deeper sections the track is still inside and their are original horse prints we found ,a few other people have been in the higher levels near the addit wich was quite boggy their on are visit ,have been here around 11 time’s now it’s a good 45 minute walk to get to the lowest point and that’s just on one streight line their is 47 lines running parallel then around 60 going across these all mined in the pillar stall method , on the visit it’s self since have been here a lot of time’s we didn’t encounter any problems first time I visited here nearly got lost in it wich was the quite scary but as you gain more experience you start to learn how the layout of this mining method all works .this line opened in the 1880s till 1943 I believe , only 8 men done this on each shift. With 3 horses hope you all enjoy the photos anything I have done rong with the post please let me no .would just like to add anyone who is not use to ug exploration please read the mine guides on here before trying this .
