Description
On the north side of Common Stage (20118*26) is a small trial adit 2.9m wide and 0.85m deep which partly underlies another spoilheap. On the northwestern side of the adit is a bank of upcast 0.4m high. The spoilheap is small, 3.0m wide on top and 2.6m high, which suggests a short adit, possibly for drainage purposes (Lax, A. 1995).
