Concrete barrier

One of the main Klondyke levels is blocked by a concrete barrier. This was installed to use the chamber which the tunnel lead to as a "slate-slurry" pit; the waste was dumped down an air shaft, which I'll try to locate.

Tunnels Blocked

Some of the levels leading off the main Klondyke Pit are blown up, or concreted-up because the nearby Peat Field working quarry, is untopping some of Klondyke's chambers, which are directly underneath. Thankfully these first chambers are not underneath.
