Rhadley (Linley Consols, Rhadley Stiperstones) Mixed Mine (United Kingdom)

The opencast on top of the hill has been bulldozed almost flat. The main adit is open on a large tip by the side of the track. There is approximately 1ft of water on the floor and it goes some distance past a clay blockage to a brick wall, beyond which the stopes have collapsed. In front of this is a 36ft winze leading to a short drivage.

There are two adjacent adits open to the south, which connect inside. Stopes descend to complex lower workings. Further up the hill is a collapsed adit. A very long tip to the north-west has a collapsed adit at the end and the remains of a compressor house. This was a trial driven in 1920s by a Mr Murgatroyd to search for veins.

On the south of the hill is an open adit and an adjacent collapsed adit.
