Uk Stiperstones Intrepid 4x5 Fomapan 400

Interesting :D The one and only time I went to the Stipperstones was with Barry Trinder, the Industrial Archaeologist, in the late 1990’s, I was a student at the time. It's one of the few places outside Cornwall with Cornish Engine houses, to drain the lead mines.

What was odd was a Wifley shaking table out on a hillside, they are used to concentrate tin ore. I'd bought one from South Crofty, in Cambourne, a few years earlier. We used it to concentrate precious metal..

I must find the photos.
