Access

Within Intake Dale, halfway between the two roads, on the south flank where the vein crosses the dale. 70m-deep engine shaft is on a very large plinth of deads, and covered with a galvanised steel lid, locked with nuts - Derbyshire Key required. The shaft is on land that is walked, so ensure that lid is closed after entry, and firmly locked upon leaving. Stope entrance is a small vertical slot high on the dale side to NE of engine shaft, dropping immediately into a 30m-deep and very narrow shaft on the vein - stacked deads throughout on either side. Great care should be exercised upon entering and leaving this route due to loose rock. Keep exit covered.
