At the north part of the site is much abandoned machinery. Some of it appears to be very old and some from the mid 1900's. There has also been dumping carried out and possibly work done on vehicles, many of which are abandoned. This together with parts taken from the area and damage caused by this and time, it is difficult to determine how the equipment worked.
However, some things have been determined or guessed at from what remains.
 | View of the North Part of the Mine |
|---|
The state of disrepair can clearly be seen but some interesting features remain. The "hill" in the background is a large tip of crushed spoil from which minerals - lead and zinc ore - may have been extracted in the twentieth century. The ore would have been taken away by road. At first by horse and cart and later probably by lorry, though the tracks now leading to the mine are very poor and probably always were.
 | The Crushed Spoil tip Tip and Part of Rail Track |
|---|
The spoil has been crushed to the grade of a rough grit of about 1 cm. The rusty remains of a raised rail track can be seen which was used to dump the spoil. Nearby is a very large quantity of uncrushed spoil.
 | A Tipping Truck |
|---|
This is probably one of the trucks used to dump the crushed spoil. It would have been pulled by rope and possibly manually tipped. The winch would have, at least at first, been operated by water power. The description of an engine house at the mine could have suggested steam power but there is no sign of any coal and it would have had to be transported a long distance.
 | The underframe of a truck |
|---|
This is the underframe of a truck which probably ran on tracks on the incline bringing the lode to the crushing plant.
