  • in this second part film we continue exploring the depths of Haggs Mine in Alston Moor , Cumbria U.K. battling through the deep flooded levels and confined spaces of this abandoned mine and finding the ladder way connection to Brownley Hill Mine
    Brownley Hill mine was first worked for lead with silver as early as 1735. mining continued under different companies and In 1890 was sold up to the Nenthead and Tynedale Lead and Zinc Company who held the lease until 1894. At this time high grade lead ore was depleted and the Vieille Montagne Zinc Company took over the lease in 1914 shifting operations to the extraction of zinc ore. The mine operated until 1936. The last working of the mine was between 1964 and 1966

    The delaminating nature of this mine is stunning. It’s as dangerous as it is beautiful. Thanks for being brave enough to do this. Cheers to your crew mates.

    Hi Antonio, wow you can really see where the back/ceiling has been delaminating over time, it's quite incredible to see all of the different layers.
    You can really see the geological processes at work in this mine with the folding of the different layers of rock, absolutely amazing.
    I don't think anyone can really appreciate the amount of hard work you go through to make these video's, for that we thank you.
    Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 💖
