My thanks go to Peter Claughton, who has posted three photos of plant used at the mine in the early part of the 20thC.
Please go to http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/files/mining-history/ and click on images.
I would be grateful for any comments on these and the function of the plant. The remains of an ore processing and smelting line can still be seen, on the opposite side of the valley to the shaft and I presume that the two plant photos were taken in that area.
If any members have further information on this mining site, I would be very interested to hear from them.
