Dear List,
I wonder, does anyone know when the deep adit (on lode) at South Tamar Consols silver-lead mine (West Devon) was driven? I visited it recently and was struck by its small dimensions and archaic 'coffin level' shape. It would not surprise me if it was 17th century or even earlier, but perhaps the more silver-minded of you may know more?
