Contrary to anything I might have written or said previously, it seems certain now that Gallt-y-Llan was the site of the Llanberis Slate Company Limited's use of a Hunter Tunneller in January 1868 as reported in the Mining Journal. It does not seem to have attracted much photographic attention or visitation by explorers - does anyone have any more information on it?

The map is the territory - especially in chain scale.

We visited Gallt-Y-Llan on 9th March 2008. Notes indicate nothing underground at all, but some bits of machinery lying around on the tips.

JonK will have some photos.

Used for trials maybe before opening up the pit?
