Monkstone Manganese Mine (United Kingdom)

First developed in 1818, achieved the very high output of 3,265 tons of manganese, valued at £4,658, in the brief period between 1879 and 1881, during which years it actually out produced nearby Chillaton and Hogstor. Unfortunately, very little is known of the history of this mine

all that remains today is an old shaft, some reservoir leading to a pretty much leveled engine house, stack base and some small dumps accessible via a footpath through the site.
