If you are thinking of a visit, when I visited with Peak District Mines
Historical Society, they were friendly and helpful. They look upon visitors
as a way of clearing there name (for putting out smoke and bad smells). I
would go so far as to recommend a visit to anybody interested in that sort
of thing, but if you want to take photographs (they only restrict you in a
few places) ask if they can gas testing for you, as that allows photography
in some of the restricted places.
As you can perhaps tell, I was taken by the place and would like a return
trip, hopefully under the pretense of recording the operation for the local
historical society
Regards
Andrew
