Located on part of the now closed North Staffordshire Coal Field – the Apedale Country Park is a fine example of nature reclaiming industrial sites. The history of the site is celebrated in the Mining Museum – free of charge. The Moseley Railway Trust also found a home there for their collection of 2 foot gauge railways. Their steam fleet includes a Kerr Stuart Tatoo class 0-4-2T “Stanhope” and a Joffre 0-6-0T. The latter stars when the annual “Tracks to the Trenches” festival takes place with suitably dressed cast, train loads and replica trenches.

The Mining Museum is well worth a visit – Coal power drove the Potteries. Large chunks of NCB equipment await restoration whilst providing a home for blackberries.

The Apedale Country Park is located in the D formed by the M6 between junctions 15 and 16 and the A500 Stoke on Trent relief road. It is accessed from the A34.

A large gem mining sluice activity was built in winter 2016 in front of Trapper Dave's General Store, replacing a much smaller one that can be seen in this photo.

I love that the big lumbering service trucks on our mine are named Galactica, Voyager, Enterprise and Excelsior

The Colliery

The Lady Victoria Colliery, home of the National Mining Museum Scotland, was opened in 1895 as Scotland’s first super-pit. It ceased production in 1981 and now serves as an example of one of the best preserved Victorian Collieries in Europe. The four-acre Midlothian site effectively captures the developments in mining over generations and highlights include the most powerful steam winding engine in Scotland; the most extensive preserved suite of Lancashire Boilers in the UK, and the only extant timber Dredger in Europe.

 

The public areas of the Museum occupy a small proportion of the site and are the result of successive programmes of Heritage Lottery Fund, European Regional Development Fund and Historic Scotland capital development. A Grade ‘A’ listed site, the terrain bears the scars of industrial development, environmental exploitation and exposure to the elements. The majority of the surface structures are composed of brick, steel and iron and, despite their architectural significance, some remain in a derelict state.

Banská štôlňa Kilián

 

Gold digging in Magurka began about the year 1250. The village was famous throughout the Austro-Hungarian monarchy for its deposits of gold ore. The mines are located above the village, in the northern slopes of Latiborská hoľa, in altitude from 1100 to 1400 m.

An old mining adit Kilián, founded in 1835 was the longest adit in the whole Magurka ore field. Extends 3674 meters below the ridge of Latiborská hoľa and was the main adit on which the other adits were connected.

 

Banská štôlňa Kilián bola založená roku 1835 a bola najdlhšou zo všetkých štôlní magurského banského systému. Siahala 3674 metrov pod Latiborskú hoľu a bola hlavnou štôlňou na ktorú sa napájali aj ostatné štôlne. V súčasnosti všetky štôlne v tejto lokalite sú buď v zlom technickom stave, kvôli svojmu veku, alebo sú úplne zavalené.
