Loughshinny , Co.Dublin

Loughshinny adit

 

Only an adit in the cliff face in this area is visible despite a long history of attempts at mining dating from before 1770 to a probable closure in 1845. Copper was worked from veins in the Carboniferous limestone. The photo was taken by Matt Parkes. See Cole's Memoir page 30.
