There are a few trees around and the shaft is not that deep maybe 40 feet or so.

Remember me saying about the shaft I went down on New Year's Day?  This is the one. It didn't go anywhere!  The drainage adit is of interest though.  Won't say too much due to this being a public thread, but there is a historic one of "their" dig's part way down shored up with bits of old rail and high water the other side.  It's on my very long list of things to re-visit.  There is also a "spare" set of wheels there for the train although there was a chunk missing off it if I recall correctly.
