Mine (Lead).
Surface crater, labelled as old shaft on OS 10k map. Not shown on mine plan (SP1807), hence may have been a trial on the Hopeful Vein. However, this locality overlies (or is spatially very close to) a junction along a branch of the Poutshiel Level.
Alternative Names: None recorded.
Notes: Location determined by rescaling mine plan SP1807 against 1897 OS 25" map.
