The following information is based on nothing more technical on my part other
than to say that I know it exists. A tall square castellated tower with no
other apparent adjacent buildings, but with apertures that suggest a beam
engine housing and an apparent capped shaft in front of it. A nearby stream
has a drainage portal discharging ochred water into it, from the direction of
the "Shaft". There are ruins nearby that are identified as iron smelting
furnaces and I believe that both iron and coal have been extensively mined in
the area many years ago. I had my memory of this structure "Jagged" as I read
of the "Sim's Engine" in David William's posting, I am confident that someone
on this list (If not everyone other than me) will have full information on
this "Mine and Engine", I would be gratefull for any info relating to it.
