It me again back with another explore - This is the first-ever time I have done an underground quarry/ Mine depending what you wanna call.
anyways I visited with @WilsonTheHuman & 2 nonmembers.
just out the blue I fancied a visit to these mines - I have wanted to do them for a while.
this was just a quick and simple explore and no issue at all even know we did bump into 2 people aha.
ofc I got the Crane shot.
anyways I'm gonna cut the crap. and post a few photos as I did not get many

not gonna bore too much with history so have some very basic.

Good pictures, this mine looks quite a bit like the Cults (limestone) mine in Fife, only with a bit less dodgy roof.
