Entrance of Red Deer Mine
Entrance of Red Deer Mine
Completely overgrown, the entrance of Red Deer Mine is hardly visible, but it was too dangerous to get any nearer. The iron mine was set up by Plymouth Mining Company in the 1850s, but it soon closed. From the mine a small stream flows into the Exe.
