Drilling

Hole in the ground.
	Cambokeels Mine (Cammock Isle Mine; Cumnock Isle Mine; Cammock Eals Mine), Westgate, Weardale, North Pennines, Co. Durham, England, UK For all it was a dry day, water was vividly flowing from this hole. No idea how deep it is or what purpose it served but i'm curious as to why someone would lay an old door frame over the top, perhaps its an adit into the mine, and if so why has it been left open?
