PDMHS

Through our biannual publication Mining History (which is free to Society members), we aim to promote interest in, and understanding of, mines, mining, the minerals extracted and the communities that depended on and worked the mines... Since then, we have been involved in the conservation of numerous Derbyshire lead mines - most notably the iconic Magpie Mine near Sheldon, which is the best preserved 19th century lead mine in the whole of Britain. We have also been involved in over 20 other mining projects at industrial heritage sites in Derbyshire, as well as helping to preserve access to dozens of mining sites (both above and below ground), undertaking work to make mines safe, and helping to get statutory protection for the most important Derbyshire lead mine sites.
