MineRegionWorkedCommodities
Page Bank Colliery
A fire in the shaft's timber lining trapped the men below, and it was finally put out with five barrels of gunpowder.
County Durham 1850s (sinking from 1853)–July 1931 Coal
Pallaflat Iron Mine
A Bigrigg haematite pit of 1874 to 1914 whose spoil heaps gave the mineral world its butterfly-twinned calcite and green baryte a lifetime after the ore ran out.
Cumbria Company formed 1874; No. 1 shaft working by 1884–Abandoned 1914 Iron
Palmerston Quarry
It undercut the quarry above it, and brought down 6.25 million tons of rock on itself.
Gwynedd 1825 (Welsh Slate Company lease)–1883; absorbed into Oakeley Slate
Pandora Mine
A Gwydir Forest lead-zinc mine whose ore fed the purpose-built Klondyke processing mill via a two-mile tramway along Llyn Geirionydd — later the stage for one of Welsh mining's most brazen 1920s investment frauds.
Conwy Worked intermittently from around 1868–1931 (mine); Klondyke mill closed 1911 Lead, Zinc
Pantdreiniog Quarry
Reopened in 1901 as a workers' cooperative by William John Parry, the 'Quarryman's Champion', specifically to employ men locked out of the neighbouring Penrhyn quarry during Britain's longest-ever industrial dispute -- and later renamed two of its own steam locomotives after the union's own leading figures.
Gwynedd Working from around 1825.–Closed for the final time in 1930. Slate
Pantyffynnon Colliery
An Amman valley anthracite slant driven 500 yards to reach its seam, rebuilt by the Coal Board in 1957 for another twenty-five years and shut eleven years later.

Parc Mine
Interconnected underground with eleven other mines in the Gwydir Forest lead-mining district

Parkenoweth Mine
Named in an 1868 parochial history as one of the more prosperous tin mines of the St Just district, alongside Levant, Boscaswell Downs and Wheal Owls -- though no account of its own individual working life has yet been located.
Cornwall No reliable opening date has yet been located.–No reliable closure date has yet been located. Tin
Parkfield Colliery
Its Brandy Bottom engine house survives as a scheduled ancient monument, one of the most complete relics of the Bristol coalfield.
Bristol Sunk in 1851 by Handel Cossham; coal was reached in 1853.–Closed on 15 August 1936, as worsening flooding Coal
Parkhall Colliery
Its rope-hauled tramway outlived it: the landsale wharf it fed was still working for the Coal Board in the 1990s.
Staffordshire c. 1850s–1962 Coal
Parkside Colliery
The last new coal mine sunk in Lancashire, working from 1960 to 1993.
Lancashire sinking from 24 November 1957–1993 (production ceased c. October 1992; formally closed by June 1993) Coal
Parrock Quarry
A quarry that went from thirty-three people to three, and a foreman killed by the one arrangement on the site that needed checking every time.
Cumbria By 1894 in the official returns–Not worked in 1930 Slate
Parsonage Colliery
Its shafts to the Arley seam were the deepest in the country for years — the site is now a supermarket car park with a set of memorial panels to show for it.

Parys Mountain
Vast 18th-century opencast with a strikingly coloured mineral landscape
Anglesey Bronze Age–1904 Copper, Lead, Silver, Zinc, Gold
Peak Alum Works
Peak's alum works burned through roughly 100 tons of shale, and up to 200 tons of imported human urine, every year — to make barely a fraction of that weight in alum, England's first great chemical industry running on little more than fire, patience and other people's waste.
North Yorkshire Discovered 1640; worked from 1650–1862 Alum
Peakshill or Oden Sough
Driven at real productive expense between 1726 and 1729 to both drain Odin Mine and hunt for new ore, the sough never found what it was looking for -- the vein dips away beneath Rushup Edge just beyond its end.
Derbyshire Driven between 1726 and 1729–No reliable closure date has yet been located. Lead
Peelwood Colliery
A geological fault cut its workings in two — so the company simply sank a whole separate shaft, the Daisy Pit, to get at the coal on the other side of it.

County Durham 1835–February 1965 Coal
Pen-ffordd-goch Ironstone Scours
Iron ore won by turning water loose on a hillside — and datable to the year, because the scouring stopped when the reservoir that would have supplied it was built in 1817.
Blaenau Gwent At least the 17th century–By 1817 (scouring) Ironstone, Coal
Pen-y-Bryn Mine
Became, for a period in the 20th century, the centre of the large-scale Halkyn District United Mines operation, itself an amalgamation of nine former mining companies.
Flintshire early 20th century–1970s (headframe dismantled 1987) Lead, Zinc
Pen-y-Bryn Quarry
The quarry's own name comes from a 17th-century house that continued to be lived in even while the quarry worked around it, remaining occupied until after the Second World War -- and the complex of surviving buildings, including its workers' cottages, a saw mill and a weighbridge, is unusually complete for a Nantlle Valley quarry.
Gwynedd No reliable opening date has yet been located.–No reliable closure date has yet been located. Slate
Pen-yr-Orsedd Quarry
Britain's last working Blondins were lifting slate out of these pits until 1979 — and one of them is still hanging there
Gwynedd 1816–1979 Slate

Pendarves Mine
Simms Shaft, sunk in 1967-68, was the first entirely new shaft sunk anywhere in Cornwall in forty years -- a rare vote of confidence in tin mining that the 1985 tin crash ended within two decades.
Cornwall 1967 (Simms Shaft sunk 1967-68)–1984, or after the October 1985 tin crash Tin
Pendeen Consols
Its old workings now lie directly beneath Pendeen Lighthouse.
Cornwall 1856–1870 Tin, Copper

Greater Manchester 1846–June 1961 Coal
Pendleton Colliery
George Stephenson, the railway pioneer, sat on its board while his own brother ran the pit day to day — and it went on to become, for a time, the deepest coal mine in Britain.
Greater Manchester Late 1820s–1939 Coal
Penhalls Mine
A St Agnes tin mine assembled from several smaller setts, later half of Wheal Kitty and Penhalls United
Cornwall Worked by 1834; amalgamated setts–1884 (independent working); 1930 (as Penhalls United) Tin, Copper

The limestone that built both bridges over the Menai Strait, shipped across the water by boat from the quarry that cut it.
Anglesey 18th century–No reliable closure date has yet been located. Limestone
Pennerley Mine
Two Bronze Age barrows stand on the summit of nearby Round Hill, a reminder that people were doing something purposeful on this hillside a very long time before anyone thought to call it Pennerley or start digging for lead.
Shropshire worked by the 18th century; main phase from 1879-80–1884 (main lead working); baryte worked to 1925 Lead, Barite
Pennyvenie Colliery
It outlasted every other pit in the Doon Valley, and when it stopped in 1978 deep coal mining in that part of Ayrshire stopped for good
East Ayrshire Production from 1872–1978 Coal
Penrhiw Mine
Began life as a chance discovery made by Ystumtuen's own miners working beyond their lease boundary, under its original name Pen y Berth or Berth Ddu.

Thirty-eight killed on the night shift in 1871 — two of them rescuers who were overcome by afterdamp the moment their cage touched the pit bottom.
Rhondda Cynon Taf 1857–1929 Coal
Pentreclwydau Colliery
The NCB planned it for 1,000 men and bought a £150,000 continuous miner for it, but faulted ground meant it lasted only nine years; its post-war concrete fanhouse and engine houses are now a scheduled monument.
Neath Port Talbot Drifts begun 1955; production from 1958–27 May 1967 (NCB); later reopened Coal
Penwyllt Quarry
A quarry village built by an indigo importer, served by a tramroad he went bankrupt building — and undercut by the longest cave system in Wales.
Powys c. 1820–Brickworks 1937 or 1939; quarrying continues nearby Limestone, Silica Sand

Believed to be a nationally unique feature, its narrow hand-cut slits -- some only 40cm wide -- are the sole known example of Derbyshire miners cutting straight into a limestone crag face to follow a side vein.
Derbyshire Before the mid-18th century (pre-dynamite)–No reliable closure date has yet been located. Lead
Pirnie Colliery
The Methilhill cannel pit whose Parrot coal fed a paraffin refinery at Methil harbour, and whose purchase in 1877 helped turn the Fife Coal Company back to profit.

Cornwall By the 1730s–1941 Tin, Copper
Poldark Mine
A tin mine abandoned around 1780 was rediscovered two centuries later, reopened as a tourist attraction, and then renamed after — and used to film — the very TV drama that made Cornish mining famous to a national audience.
Cornwall c. 1720–c. 1780 Tin
Poldice Mine
Poldice's three-act history — tin, then copper, then arsenic — tracks the entire arc of Cornish hard-rock mining in miniature, each shift in product driven by exactly the kind of market collapse and diversification that played out across the county as a whole.
Cornwall by 1512 (documented); certainly worked by the 17th century–1930 Copper, Tin, Arsenic
Poldory Mine
One of the three founding mines of United Mines -- alongside Ale and Cakes Mine and Wheal Cupboard, both already documented on this archive -- worked mainly on the 'Great South Lode' and, further north, the aptly-named 'Hot Lode', named for its extreme temperatures at greater depth.

Cheshire By 1600–30 August 1935 Coal
Preseli Bluestone Quarries
If the quarrying interpretation is right, this is the oldest working record in the entire archive by roughly four and a half thousand years — and archaeologists still argue about whether it happened at all
