They're not my images, but I came across an amazing slideshow of images of disused welsh slate mines - absolutely stunning. Enjoy.

Very speleological looking shots. Nice.

excellent Paul - thanks for posting

I went to Porthmadog on a school field trip long time ago - though it was the Ffestiniog railway itself that was the centre of attraction for most, rather than the history of slate quarrying....
