Dear All,
I am interested in the above workings which were started in
about 1864 by J Snowden & co . The works were short lived , passing to
other owners and eventually disposed of in 1874 . I live in one of the
miners cottages in Anglers Quarters ( formerly Irish Row ) and would be
very greatfull for any information regarding the mine , the blast furnaces
and the cottages .
Being something of a novice regarding research into these
matters I would welcome any suggestion as to where to look for information
. I know that some local people have maps , plans & documents but would
appear to prefer to keep them under wraps .
Many thanks.......Ian Pearce
