Description

[1] This single-track tramway is marked today as an indistinct gully over much of its length and as a low embankment at the lower end. It was marked on the 1922 map and was built when the Mam Engine hillocks were reworked for gangue minerals in the 1920's. The hillocks were fully removed later in the mid-20th century to provide ballast when repairing the Mam Tor road (Rieuwerts and Ford 1976, Jim Rieuwerts pers. Comm.).
