It's a shame it's gone but looking at the pre-collapse photos it was hardly unexpected!

I posted that from Pete Geddes, its a shame there are a few Mine Buildings on the Isle of man reqiuring some form of preservation. Clearly Laxey is the centre of Tourism and worthy of viewing but there are lo0ts of other sites and remains on the Island
