Bateman’s mine shaft in Lathkill Dale part of the English Peak District is under the ruins of a house that was built to cover the shaft in the early 1800s by the then-owner of the mine, James Bateman.
The shaft entrance was used as a water-powered pump to drain the nearby lead mines of water.
These days the house is in ruins, but the entrance to the mine shaft is now open to the public with a short metal ladder that allows you to climb down.
There is even a metal lever that, when turned clockwise, lights part of the shaft up, but to be honest, it was not that good, so I used a flashlight.

I video wildlife in the English countryside and anything nature related I find on my travels. I try to create and upload a few times a week.

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some people call me Diane, Deanna, or even Liana sometimes), and I am an Artist Ventures Lead at Bored Panda.
In my role, I work closely with artists and creators from all over the world, helping bring their work to a wider audience and highlighting the incredible things people create. A big part of what I do is connecting talented artists with the platform and making sure their projects, stories, and visuals get the recognition they deserve.
Outside of work, you can usually find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, going to concerts, and spending time with my cats (heavy on that one, because I’m definitely a cat mom).
