Processing floor
At Moel y Garth manganese mine. The ore bin upper centre has a barrow way above it to tip ore from the workings on the top of the hill. Below seems to be a cobbing floor, littered with small fragments of bluestone, then below that, just out of shot to the left is what appears to be a round buddle pit, not something I associate with manganese mining. I can't work out what it could be. So many mysteries!
