The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping published in 1870 records the presence of a lead mine at the location provided.  Two structures are shown, remains of which form portions of the boundary wall. 


Photographs in the MNH archives dating to 1975 record the survival of a pair of chimneys associated with the mine: these are not obvious on the OS mapping referred to, and may represent a later development or expansion of the mine. Both chimneys were rectangular in plan, approximately 2.4 metres (8 foot) square at the base rising to about 9 metres in height (30 feet). One chimney was cracked and leaning, however the other appeared in excellent condition.  Both chimneys have since been demolished.


The site is now occupied by a modern structure.
