Holmbush Mine
A view across a field from the A388. On the left are the remains of the engine house https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1220764 ; to the right is a chimney https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1220760 . A further chimney is virtually hidden in shadows on the left https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1290834 . "The Hitchen's Shaft complex at the Holmbush Mine survives well as a very good example of the range of features and structures grouped to serve the needs of a mid- to later 19th century shaft head in a non-ferrous metals mine" https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1020435 , which gives a detailed account.

Holmbush Mine
This is the remains of the buildings surrounding part of Holmbush Mine. Conservation work was carried out in 2007 and it is reasonably safe to walk around these buildings provided you are careful. There are the remains of three engine houses along with the boiler house chimney which is still just about standing. I have no specific information about the engine houses but the one in the foreground has a very wide arched entrance and if you walk inside you can still see the bolt holes which were used to anchor the engine to the ground. This building must have housed very large engine, possibly 100 inch cylinder. Such large engine were almost always used to pump water from the mine workings.
