This mine is between Nangiles and West Jane (modern Wheal Jane). There are workings above adit and a descent of these would perhaps show a link with Nangiles and Jane deep adit. A point to note, William's shaft has a funny smell coming out of it, bad air would not be an impossibility. The ground appears to be wasteland adjacent to a public path, the clywd caps are un-modified and there are groundworks in the vicinity, perhaps making exploration a bad idea.
