PENARTH SLATE MINE, Dee Valley - Sunday 26th June 2016.
Meet 11am Penarth, large layby on A5(NGR SJ 1135 4312).
A day trip to this popular, former slate mine, located in a picturesque, elevated setting looking down to the Dee Valley. This is an easy trip, ideal for novices, but also of interest to more experienced explorers. Boilersuit, oversuit or old clothes will be fine. Mine is mostly dry(lower level, contains some static water, but optional), with mainly large, walking size passages and huge caverns.
There are interesting mine artifacts, and an impressive, steep incline with rails insitu, and there will be plenty of time for photography. Party size not limited/Booking optional.
Note: Please send a pm for further details, lifts available and for 'new' AN members, I do have a limited number of lamps/helmets.
(PDMHS meet - All welcome!)




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.
