If you go back drop me a PM, you can easily avoid that flooded section
They was not fakes mate thankyou found them around their everywhere and much to consistent, if you keep your eyes open you shall also find them as you obviously regularly go their thanks for other advice shall keep it in mind ,we also see a lot of horse prints in differnt mines I don’t think people carry in horses legs faking these also Thanks for your reply anywayInclines not tramways, and levels go down from mill level,1,2,A,B,C,D,E,F,*G* and 2 chambers in H* (*=flooded) And reason you might have to go up a level when chamber was worked they used to throw waste in it rather than haul it out,(and you might be in a certain vein) remember there was 5 different slate veins there so when you see survey or map you respect those old miners more & more. Sorry those hobnail boot marks were done by someone taking the pi$$
And please if exploring the mine refrain from spraying bright graffiti everywhere (not saying it was you, just saying to everyone)
Familly member used to work in mine for years and this is his words...”There’s only GENUINE hob nail boots (old miners boots not modern boots) in part of the old workings, accesible only by boat and have been taped off to keep people from ruining them. I’ve seen them myself! I’ve walked through nearly every inch of that mine, I’m in there at least once a week finding stuff and displaying them, and believe me there’s no hob nail boot prints appart from ones locals have made with found boots. Lots of locals take the piss by carrying hob nail boots which they know whereabouts and print them all around as a laugh. Seen it done. Take Diffwys, there is genuine horseshoe print in there then some one finds out and prints a few himself with a horseshoe just for a laugh in a more accessible part of mine.
You taking the piss lol, I posted one picture, I cleaned up 20+ different pink graffiti. You try get place spotless when you can only use slate and mud as a cleaning product. If idiots wouldn’t come exploring and spraying pink and green graffiti over historic miners pictures I wouldn’t have to spend 2 hours cleaning. My dad worked for years in this mine and to see it disrespected by idiots not wanting to get lost is shameful. If you need bright pink paint to help you through mine, you shouldn’t be in there
Seriously, you have seen it done and that means that lots of the local residents do this, you mean that you have done it
