A good talk and very interesting (I'm the 'young' non-member).

Nice to see someone else doing what I'm doing. Myself & ICLOK are going through the South Notts/Derbys area and going around investigating and putting together some info and maps about the remains of the coal/clay/ironstone mines and their transport networks. A much bigger job than originally expected because there is a lot to be seen.

I might have some more names of mines and some locations for the North Derbys stuff.

Be nice if you could put some of your photo on here.

I went in a mine once.... it was dark and scary..... full of weirdos


When do I get my soapbox, I need to rant on about some b***cks

Disclaimer: Mine exploring can be quite dangerous, but then again it can be alright, it all depends on the weather. Please read the proper disclaimer.
