Caedu Colliery, Spoil HeapsSpoil Heap Complex · 37 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Caedu Colliery, Spoil Heaps in Bridgend are basically mountains made of rubbish. Post Medieval spoil heaps? I bet they're still trying to figure out what to do with all that stuff. Grab some coal dust!
Ogmore Vale Mining Remains;Cae-Du Colliery, Ogmore ValeCoal Workings · 45 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Ogmore Vale Mining Remains, Cae-Du Colliery is a post-medieval colliery in Bridgend. Coal workings where miners dug deep. It’s a mining site with unknown access, so don’t go jumping into old shafts expecting to find diamonds or anything shiny and valuable.
Caedu Colliery, Winding DrumWinding Drum · 75 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Caedu Colliery, Winding Drum in Bridgend is probably spinning in its sleep. A Post Medieval winding drum? That's a giant spool of thread made of stone. Take a picture of the rope end!
Caedu Colliery, Level IILevel · 99 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Caedu Colliery, Level II is a post-medieval level at the colliery. Just another flat bit of land near the coal works. Bridgend location with no clear entry rights. It’s probably just dirt, but don’t get too comfortable until you know who owns that patch of ground.
Caedu Colliery, Tramway ITramway · 134 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Caedu Colliery, Tramway I is another Post Medieval tramway. They really loved moving stuff on rails here. Probably full of old coal dust and bad attitudes.
Caedu Colliery, Level IIILevel · 160 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Caedu Colliery Level III is an old drainage entrance that probably goes down forever. Post-medieval miners built this to keep the water out, but it might just lead to another level of disappointment.
