Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Presents a summary of the history of mining in the Caldbeck fells, and describes the results of recent research carried out by local enthusiasts. Their findings have not only been pivotal in extending the known date for mining and smelting to before AD 1200, but have also provided the earliest known evidence for the use of tracked transport in the UK and possibly elsewhere. A major conclusion is that the historical research and practical work, including the discovery of a hitherto unknown level, has determined that the principal seat of Elizabethan mining at Caldbeck was the Silver Gill workings.
