To the west of the Mount Pleasant surface quarry, up to nine entrances served the small underground workings of this quarry. It worked an area of approxumately one hectare underground between the wars and again in the 1980s. Planning permission is registered for an area of approximately 0.7 hectares but these small reserves are unlikely to be economically viable.

Alternate Names: Mount Pleasant Mine

Notes: Survey published in the SMCC Jnl 10(8)244-246(2001 for Autumn 2000).
