In this video, we explore what remains at the surface of the historic Grove Rake mine in the Northern Pennines, UK, the last of fluorite mine in the area. With mining going back to the 1600s, initially for lead and then for fluorite, the mine was worked right up until 1999. In this explore, we cover the entire site including the incline, the old and modern drifts, the headgears, various buildings and the Manager's house. Hope you enjoy.
