Honister Slate Mine (Cameron Alastair)(Paperback / softback) - popis produktu

Utilising a wealth of rare and unpublished images from official archives, Cameron and Withey tell the story behind the development of the Honister Mine in the Lake District from the time of the Norman Conquest until today.Though the exact date that mining at the site begun is unknown, it was undoubtedly in operation shortly after the arrival of William the Conqueror. Slate was initially won by peeling it off the face of Honister Crag in large slabs or digging it out from the ground on hillside beyond the Crag where the slate-rock outcropped. Later, during Elizabethan times, skilled immigrant miners from the Tyrol taught native slate workers how to drive tunnels into the Crag to obtain slate from deeper underground. By the Victorian era operations had expanded considerably with large-scale underground mining under way. The many miles of rail track made the transport of slate much easier
