This building on top of the shaft was originally built in 1830 by the Lathkill Dale Mining Company to cover a 12m deep shaft housing a design of water-powered pump to drain their lead mines. It later also served as the family home for the company's agent James Bateman. the aqueduct ran from the river further up the valley then across the aqueduct through the stone arched bridge that you mentioned earlier and dropped on to a water wheel that pumped out the water from the mines , Later the wheel was replaced with a Beam engine and that is what stood by the big ruin still standing that you first came across 😀
The ladder isn't abandoned, it's a modern feature allowing access to this very well known tourist feature in Lathkill Dale. The dale itself is very picturesque, especially in summer, with lots of plants and wildlife. At one end it is more wild and open, with steep sided, grassy limestone slopes. The parts shown here are heavily wooded and were once highly industrialised. The water in the river Lathkill is extremely clean and clear. It joins the neighbouring Bradford Dale and the River Bradford, which is also beautiful, quiet and has crystal clear water.
Yeah, at 10:08 above the water 👉🏻 It looks like a white steamy man shape moving very fast from left to right.. which looks like a ghostly image.. while the same white vapor or smoke shape appears near the torch (right). I would assume it is caused by the heat of the person (him).
Umm 🤔 3:35-3:36 when you pan out is there black mass in trees or Someone that was with you just captured ? Maybe just blurred image random ? 😂 cracking me up with torch 🔥 gotta get me one
@@DanielWiseman-y9j Not the same - brambles/briars have similar, but smaller, flowers than wild roses. They produce blackberries, delicious when cooked in an apple crumble! Roses produce rosehips, rich in vitamin C. Years ago rosehip syrup was given to children to boost their immune systems. I remember it well..

Fascinating place. Sorry the brambles got you! Keep these great lost-places pieces coming, please. Cheers!
Should carry some small cutting shears with you.

It's a Yeti or Bigfoot, as they say in the US. It's quite uncommon here in the UK. This is a very rare sighting
Well done!
Neh, see again at 4:43, you'll see that same black hoody person with a child walking together (top right).
What he is calling a bramble we here in NC call a briar.
Wild roses, they're wicked everywhere.

If you don’t ever do any research, everything you find will be totally surprising.
