But I don't understand the 5 and 5 split of the points

Correct Les.

I would have offered 5 points for the answer "Grid Ref of a mine" and another 5 points if you actually named it.

You managed both ... so, 10 points ...

2) Name the mine?
3) What year was the photo taken (1 guess each)?

Salt? The Great Orme? Copper?
Mike should know the answer as it's his hand
