Indeed, I was down there in September on a trip organised by the Wirksworth Mines Research Group. It's a cracking trip and luckily their Chairman is bessie mates with the landowner so we were granted full access to get the winch in for the trip down the main engine shaft. Generally a pretty spectacular place with loads of interesting artifacts that were well preserved by nature ofr the difficult access. There has been a recent posting of pictures on the ME site by one of the WMRG boys.
