Wezzit?

[Pitlamp]

Ha ha - no, that's the entirely natural part of the cave. A fine example of a phreatic ramp guided by a fault.

 

[RobinGriffiths]

Great! A mining photo ...

Certainly is... Should be reasonably well known.

 

[ChrisJC]

Oooh, Alderley Edge?

Chris.

 

[RobinGriffiths]

Slightly more please... Mine name, not location.

 

[Ian Ball]

Alderley Edge mine

 

[RobinGriffiths]

It is a Alderley Edge mine, but which one?

 

[ChrisJC]

Now I'm guessing - Wood Mine?

Chris.

 

[rm128]

Engine Vein?

 

[RobinGriffiths]

Engine it is.

 

[rm128]

Great stuff. Try this one then. I'll narrow it down to the Peak.

 

[Ian P]

Oxlow ?

 

[rm128]

Afraid not.

 

[steviet_scg]

Robins Shaft Mine?

 

[rm128]

Robins Shaft Mine?

Indeed it is. Just where the shaft changes from 45 degrees to almost vertical. A great little trip.

Over to you...

 

[ChrisJC]

Oh balls. I thought of that one, but having never been there didn't try it!

Chris.

 

[rm128]

Oh balls. I thought of that one, but having never been there didn't try it!

Chris.

Maybe there’s a moral there somewhere? Can’t think what it is though.

 

[rm128]

...and you should definitely go!

 

[ChrisJC]

I know! on both counts!

Chris.

 

[steviet_scg]

Marvellous - great little trip indeed!

I forget which of my limited range of pics I've already used. Don't think we've had this one

Another from the Peak District

Oxbow ?
