Follow us exploring the full length of the tunnel , bearing witness To One of the biggest Mine exploration feats in History !!!
Really glad to have found this video. Been as far as the gate and heard about the project. What an achievement reopening it. Thanks for sharing this and satisfying a long time curiosity 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
another awesome explore. The sheer determination of the 3 guys to do what they did is staggering, hope this mine is kept safe from the vandals. think we should all raise a glass to salute the work of the 3 guys and the CATMHS
This is the most amazing thing I've seen. I love the history of this mine and the dedication to preserving it. What an achievement. Thanks
i went there last year, told myself i wouldn't go back but it's so inviting!!!
This is the most incredible mine explore story and video I have ever seen. And I watch a lot of mine videos. Thank you very much for sharing with us all!
I used to work in coal mines, some of the geology we used to see was unbelievable. Fossils of fish insects and they found a dug out canoe at 1062 yards below ground. How long had the boaters been. Fantastic place but a bit scary if you're not used to it.Hem Heath.
The scale of this dig is hard to believe. I used to do mine trips with C.A.T. in the early 80's, it is great to see there are still people exploring and pushing these old mines. Now I live in New Zealand so I doubt I'll ever go back to the Lake district, but if I do then I'll be buying the 3 diggers a pint !!
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! I want to have a conversation with the guys who did this for sure!
This has been on my to do list for a fair few months now.. you beat me to it. Nother banger of a video tho dude
What an experience
I love to see all these hidden gems
Great video. Thanks
Good stuff 🇬🇧🏴
Thanks for showcasing this Antonio, I tell you C.A.T. is where it's at. You should see Hudgill (Nenthead) and Ding-dong in Furness. Of course the D.C.C. have also done wonders at Alderley Edge, and P.D.M.H.S in Derbyshire etc. Kind regards.
Great stuff
Great vid
nice
Why no videos of Alderley Edge copper mines
You have awesome videos, fantastic footage and a view into places many would never see.
What are the handheld strip lights? I have been looking for one for ages.
No wellies allowed in old mines?

Fantastic work by the three men for seven years only on the weekends.Did they get paid for the work if not a bronze plaque with there names on it put at the opening.
Was all free labour From their love to the mine !
As well as 7 years of work, how much money did they have to invest in getting hold of bags/steel/materials. It's a staggering amount of effort
A lot of money invested I imagine !!!
Another great vid love BILLS sexy legs face not bad either lol lovely tour by bill of this fantastic mine love your camera work too well done nice one
I smoked a fat doink in that mine
