Description
GAT HER: a small site in the Gwydir mining area, adjacent to the Pandora Mine, which nevertheless preserves some hand-dressing areas and workings on the back of the vein. Probably originally part of the Ffrith Talyllyn Mines but named as a separate mine by mid 19th century. Possibly some more ancient mining in the area (Bennett and Vernon 1995, Mines of the Gwydyr Forest part 6, 37). (Jane Kenney, GAT, 03 January 2014)
