Hello new here but i was on adit now for many years as "Mr Sam" although didn't post a great deal.
Has anyone on here got any more info on a recent surface collapse at Frongoch? I happened to see some pictures posted on a 4x4 group as the mine surface is now used as a Range Rover breakers yard, a large sink hole has opened up and swallowed a few Range Rovers. This interested me greatly as the most recent underground pictures i've come across were 2012 which showed a note left by @royfellows in 1995.
The other real interest in this mine being when i was a child in the early 90's my grandmother lived in Cwmystwyth Village and I was never allowed to go see the surface features there, she then moved to New Row which is a row of miners cottages associated with Frongoch.
anyway heres a short clip of the collapse my mother found the note left by Roy and some surface pictures i took a few years ago.
