Back Yard Slate Mine

I had planned to walk halfway up mount snowdon and visit Britannia copper mine, but I was too busy all afternoon to make it up there, so decided to go on Monday instead. I decided to visit the slate mine behind my garden instead so I could still produce a video 😊

Buy yourself a heavy duty pocket power bank with torch. I always wonder if the video I watch might be your last. Fascinated by your direction skills knowing where to go and how to get out

My Headtorch can charge phone on the battery pack but forgot lead 🙄😂. I know most of these local mines as good as my own house 😂

Hi Chris, it was great to see parts of the mine I've never been to. I'm looking forward to seeing the video on the Britannia mine, never been underground there. God bless

Most of its gated I think, but where there's a will there's a way 😂

Cracking video, thanks.

Hi Chris, Gosh I remember when crisps were about 2 shillings lol, those were the days. There are so many cool artefacts there, I can't believe somebody stole that Vimto bottle, disgusting. Thank you for sharing, much love. xx 💞
