History: Sygun Copper Mine is a Victorian copper mine which closed in 1903 but was renovated and reopened by the Amies family as a tourist attraction in 1986, focusing on audio-visual tours of the underground workings. It is still open to the public today. Sygun Copper Mine was once a main...

First post on here. I know this has been done a few times and this isn't my first visit here, but it was a cold foggy day I was bored and wanted get a bit of content up and this is local to me. Maenofferen state mine is now a derelict site. The quarry was opened a short time after 1800 and was...

Not really a report as such, but thought the photos might interest someone. This is a vast complex of quarries from varying periods. You could easily spend days wondering around the workings and some of the not so small tunnels.. Some background info can be found here:The History of...
