Combe Martin Lead and Silver Mines

This is one of the parts of the "Heaven on Lundy" film that I have been making. The Silver Mines were a important of the English Civil War where Thomas Bushell who held the silver mines for the King tried to get as much of the silver out of he mines before being over run by the Parliamentarians.The mines are run by a enthusiastic group of volunteers.
