General Self Lead, recommended for delegates around Tal-y-bont with some time on their hands.
Although just an extensive trial, the mine forms a very easy and pleasant trip. Remains of a wheelpit and crusher house, a flooded shaft has remains of an angle bob and part of the power train. A wet adit leads nowhere and most adits are just short trials. A longish usually dry adit is worth exploring and in dry weather can be done in boots. Technicalities - obvious open dry adit. None. easy walk in, dry in dry weather and can be done in boots.
Roadside parking in the region of SN 681 868 there is a public right of way heading west which leads to the mine at SN678 869. There is also Mynydd Gorddau to the south, again cut by a PROW. The wet adit full of dead sheep is best avoided.
