Sandend Mine

History

Cant find any history on this mine

Explore



I heard of a lead from work of an old railway tunnel in Sandsend and while taking Miss Horus for lunch i decided to have a quick peep to see if i could see anything, while taking another path off the main path i come across this..





I decided to come back another day as Miss Horus was hungry
Id returned with goan, we began to rig a rope up for our decent into this mine, Unfortunately most of it was rather backfilled or collapsed but was still great fun..
