A unique opportunity to travel 140 metres underground down one of Britain’s oldest working mines, where models and machinery depict methods and conditions of mining from the early 1800s to the present. An experienced local miner will guide you around the underground workings. Above ground, find out more about the development of mining in the exhibitions around the site.
