I have recently come across references to these mines operating in the
1720s, but barely more detail than that. Is this new information or
well-known? It is not quite my subject, can any one point me to articles on
the subject? My preliminary Internet search has brought up an article in
British Mining on White Grit and an article on Pennerley at a later period.
