      Cheers buddy, I appreciate it. It was a great mine. I’m hoping that we’ll be doing more with Aiden, he’s very knowledgeable about these places, also from a safty point of view to

    This was a great underground explore Steve.
    It's amazing to think what's beneath our feet and that all of it was created by candlelight with picks and shovels and the odd bit of gunpowder here and there in the early days. Proper grafting in those days...🤔👍🏻

      Thank you mate. Absolutely buddy. 1778 they started here. I think this place was operated until the late 50’s early 60’s

    Found a few of these entrances also never went in considering many big cats got released over Bakewell way, plus I sure I seen a black panther just chilling by a tree up the country path which used too be train tracks
