This channel is based in the North East of England ( UK ) and documents our explorations of both the underground and above ground workings of abandoned, and sometimes operational mines within areas such as the Northern Pennines, North Yorkshire and the Lake District, sometimes a little further. We now and again throw in some caving too. Our intention is to document these abandoned mines, show how they worked and talk about the history behind them. Unfortunately, due to politics, or the need to preserve the site, we can not always name the mine location. If the location is not shown in the video, please do not ask as refusal to divulge often offends.
THE DANGERS OF ABANDONED MINE EXPLORATION :
****
Abandoned mines contain dangers for which equipment and training are required. Hazards can include false floors, open shafts, low oxygen, poisonous gases, collapsing or rotten structures, explosives, flood risks, bacterial infection and of course, rock falls. NEVER enter alone, ALWAYS thoroughly research your destination, ALWAYS alert a third party to your plans and timings. STAY OUT, STAY ALIVE.

Wonderful series!
Shows the importance of Oxygen Meters and NOT going beyond a set plan for Oxygen limits. "Just another 10 feet" can make a huge difference ... and then someone else will be in jeopardy trying to rescue/recover you!
New explorers take note ... cheap out on footwear, etc.. if you want ... at worst you get cold, wet, maybe a few cuts and bruises ... but DON'T convince yourself you can get an Oxygen Meter "later when you can afford it".
Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦
Yep, playing with oxygen can be dangerous for you....and others. Thanks.
Thank you for the 3part video of the mine. 👍🇨🇦
Your welcome :)
Fab explore lads just shows how the air can change in a few feet. You can tell, you both didnt sound too good. You are both very sensible! Brave but not stupid. Really enjoyed what we have seen of this mine very interesting but very dangerous. Keep safe, & thank you for sharing. ❤😊👍
Thank you, more been filmed in here since when air conditions were much worse, that will be up in a month :)
I think that's the really scary thing about hypoxia, how quickly it makes you lose the wherewithal to realise you might be experiencing hypoxia. Air meters are important.
Yes, agreed, as in this explore where the air felt fine but was rather low.
It's just scary how the air quality can drop so quickly and have often thought what was the risk of walking through an area that is good and on the way back the air level has dropped to a dangerous level? You can clearly hear that you was struggling. Another brilliant explore and I bet you could easily get lost down there and that's before the poor air quality causes you to loose your bearings.
Yes, that bad air gets worse on the way back, not so dangerous in these mines due to their large dimensions, but in a lead mine, can be a different case, you'll see some of that in a lead mine in a few weeks. Good thing about the structure of the ironstone mines is their grid pattern so often, you just head in the direction of the main drag and you find the nearest one that runs towards it and often you'll get back there quickly. This mine, at one point, we were standing still and the air quality was going up and down despite no draft. You;ll see more of that in this mine towards the end of April.
Fantastic explore, amazing how Peter remembers his way about. Oxidation in ironstone mines can suck oxygen, good job you were checking the meter. Good stuff, get well soon Steve.
Thanks Robert, yes, you'll be seeing more of low oxygen in this mine towards the end of the month.
Another great video. Love the old footprints and hoof prints. The bad air is frightening, the way it floats around in pockets, really scary. Great mine glad it’s over😂. Looking forward to some nice stone arching😊
Yes, uniquely, in this mine, we were standing still at one point and the meter was going up and down. You'll see more of that in a video towards the end of April. Next few videos, back to arching, where in a few weeks, you'll also see the effects of bad air :)
Enjoyed the series. Have you ever heard of Dragonby mines? Near Winterton. I live nearby and they are the old ironstone works for Scunthorpe Steelworks. Closed early 1980’s and not been touched since. That would be a great explore if you can get in with your various contacts.
I haven’t, but it’s something we can look into thanks, glad you enjoyed, more coming from this place towards the end of the month :)
GET ME OUT OF HERE. That old mine, is an accident waiting to happen.😵😵😵
Yup, we do it, so you don't have too :)
Perhaps you could wear toupee's?
Then you'd have access to fresh 'air *
Very nice and VERY brave explore guys 👍
*1000 apologies for that one
Lol, terrible! ;)
Was it worth it Steve, making the extremely high pitch squeals around the 5:30 mark, I think Peter led you astray
Yup, very worth it, you’ll be seeing more of that water and us getting deeper in it in the next few months, some of which has already been filmed :)
I love following your adventures in these wet UK mines. What a difference when comparing these with the mines in the USA like www.youtube.com/@AbandonedandForgottenPlaces.
Greetings from the Netherlands!
Yes, thanks, I much prefer our wet mines with their formations and the arching we have :)
i always feel bad for horses who had to exist in places like this. they don't possess a choice but to do what people forced them to do until they died, trapped in the bowels of the earth with little light, air and noise. that's such cruel and inhumane abuse, so it's good it's now a relic of the past
Yes, I don't know how often, if at all, the horses in these mines were allowed outside, but they were stabled under ground. I know in some mines, they would get several weeks holiday outside every so often, but some mines cared much less about them.
Bobs cool
Yes, he is :)
