Lead mining - Gunnerside
Lead mining

Lead mining which has existed in Swaledale since Roman days, was very big in Gunnerside in the 18th and 19th centuries even if nearby Reeth was a bigger hub. Along the footpath by the beck through the village is this resting place in the form of an old mining trolley with tools as a remainder of the old heritage.
