The atmospheric remains of Magpie Mine are one of the best places to visit in the Peak District and one of the top industrial heritage sites in Derbyshire. It was the last working lead mine in the Derbyshire orefield and is probably the best surviving example anywhere in the UK of a 19th century lead mine. The mine has a fascinating history spanning more than 200 years.

Explore the atmospheric remains of Magpie Mine in Sheldon. With free access and lots of circular walks surrounding it’s definitely worth a visit. Head into the quaint village of Sheldon for a bite to eat at the Cock & Pullet afterwards.

Worth a visit is the 'Magpie Mine near Bakewell, mining for lead has been carried out for over 250 years here, and the site is one of the best examples of its kind in the country. The area is protected by Scheduled Monument status and there is free access on foot to the site (vehicles are not allowed on site). There are new interpretation boards being erected on site to explain how the mine will have looked when being worked. Peak District Mines Historical Society take care of Magpie Mine.
