Hell folks, I am doing a fair bit of poking around this area and am interested in talking to anyone who knows more about what is what and what is where. The adits are a bit of a mystery. Especially the one which was re-routed under the quayside.

If you can help, send me a PM.

Cheers, Stu

Will ask around at work, if anyone knows about these adits, I will send you a PM with contact details. Not sure there are any underground explorers at work, but a few mining history and mineral enthusiasts...

Cheers

Is it safe to come out of the bunker yet?

I've met a few locals and had a chat. Cheers. I gather the adit into Polmear from Charlestown was "blown in" by Dickie Barstow, mineral collector extraordinaire. Get as much out as you can and then stop anyone else getting in. I think this was exceedingly poor form.
