    An informative discussion

    Recently there was long thread about the BCA. I can now post possible answers to some of the questions, such as "Why is the BCA still raising membership prices when there is a significant amount still left in its coffers?"

Yes, that's the place. Home to one of the Peaks only sulphide springs!
Thought the high bedding angle in the roof might have helped.
Over to you!

Aaarrgh. Not again! It was the dip of the beds that swung it really. It was my second option :)

OK, I'm really scraping the barrel for new sites now, so sorry about the quality too. And AR can't enter, as he's in it. The only clue I can give initially is that the stemples in most of the mine aren't as old as in many mines :)

To expand on what Phil said about the stemples, that's a steel ladder in the foreground that I'd climbed up, and it's a miners steel ladder, which should give an idea about date of last working.

For some reason, the ladder jogged my memory - I've only been there once & that was about 1988!
Hopefully this one's not too obscure, I did have a right stinker in mind but thought better of it  :)

I'll leave it for someone else then now they have a good clue.

I've never actually been there btw. I just recognise the folding from one of Mel Milner's photographs.

Yes, the feature is the only one that I know of in the Peak.
