I spent ages on Saturday afternoon looking for this little mine, my copy of COPD (admittedly not the latest version) gave a grid ref. and a description which put it pretty much in the middle of the quarry at the junction between the Via Gellia and the Hopton Road. The description said it was behind the only large hillock...... Well the place is full of hillocks of all sizes and I couldn't find anything looking like an entrance.
I'm sure it's still there as I was talking to someone earlier in the year who recommended it as beeing particularly nice due to the flooded entrance keeping casual visitors out.
The quarry itself looks to have been taken over as a nature reserve. Apparently it's for members only but I didn't see the sign until I was on my way out.....
Any advice how to more easily find the entrance next time I'm in the area would be appreciated, cheers.
