Panoramic view

Force Crag Mine (Force Craig Mine), Coledale, Braithwaite District, North and Western Region (Cumberland), Cumbria, England, UK

View of the whole Force Crag Mine area from Scar Crag near the Cobalt Mine. Above the main track up Coledale from Braithwaite, to the right hand edge of the workings, the area of collapse around the portal of No 0 Level can be made out. This event, in 1990, finally rendered the mine unviable. September 2009.
