Gill Heads MineCononley MineBunting Level

The Yorkshire Dales contain the remains of an industry, which probably dates back more than 2000 years. This industry is lead mining and it has left relics both small and great through out the area.

This website provides an introduction to the mining process and the archaeological features which have remained.
