Great Orme Mines
Description
The discovery in 1987 that the former 18th and 19th century mine workings actually went back 1800BC helped to rewrite the history books on how the Bronze age developed in the UK. The mines showed that the locals had been digging out malachite, the ore from which copper can be created. Today just a tiny fraction of the mine workings have been opened up, but they give a good idea of what life would have been like underground
