This is a Solid Fuel Mine in Wales. If you know the location / what mine this is, I ask you not to share it publicly, if you'd like to know the mine, contact me in person.
All safety precautions were taken whilst we were inside of the mine. As you can see in the second photograph, we had safety lamps and gas monitors. Please do not concern yourself with our safety
Anyway without further ado. On to the photographs.

A shot looking down the main roadway / heading.
After this, we took a left off the junction, we came to an abandoned coal face, it was abandoned due to having clay joints in the strata above the coal (very weak roof).
This is a close-up of the collapsed, abandoned coal face.
We came out of this side-road and continued down the main haulage drift, we took the first right and this is a shot of abandoned conveyor belting and air pipes ("bags" they called them).
Unfortunately, that's all we managed to capture, but we plan on returning to get more photos
Cheers for looking,
