Home»Magpie Mine, near Sheldon
The surface remains of the Magpie Mine near Sheldon in Derbyshire are the best example in Britain of an 18th and 19th century lead mine. It is one of the most iconic mining sites in Britain and was the last working lead mine in the Peak District, only closing in 1960.
