Description
About 25m to the northeast are two adits (20118*47 & 20118*48), one overlying the other. The underlying adit is 3.4m wide and 0.9m high. The spoilheap is 4.3m side and 1.0m high although it is possible some of the spoil has sunk into the marshy ground on which it is deposited (Lax, A. 1995).
This site underlies another similar site (20118*48) (Siddall, J. 1998).
