Long Tor Top Mine

Entrance of Long Tor Top Mine

Access

No known access restrictions. Situated off the woodland path running between St Johns Road & Upperwood Road. As you pass directly under the Cable car, follow the steep, rocky hillside downwards for approx 100 meters, keeping the crag on your right. The small adit is on the edge of a drop that has a small private parking area below. Public car park is in the dale. Parking on St. John's Road is not easy & likely to antagonise locals.
