Current access agreement is (IIRC) to phone Lobby Farm beforehand to arrange getting the Old Ash key, their contact details should be on the DCA website. The Barnatt-Worthington survey for both mines is available here: https://pdmhs.co.uk/MiningHistory/Bulletin%2016-3%20-%20Using%20Coal%20to%20Mine%20Lead%20-%20Firesetting%20at%20Peak%20District%20Mines.pdf

I'd be interested to know if the latex lady is still there in Lords and Ladies.... :LOL:

I have done Lords and Ladies this year and didn't notice a latex lady..... But maybe I am just unobservant?
It did have a sheep skull guarding each entrance though!

The latex lady was a blow-up doll that used to be just inside the upper entrance to L&L; she was looking pretty deflated when I was last there several years ago so may now have been given indecent burial...
