The Walls
The outside of the mine was covered with moss-like material. It was difficult to look inside. Christopher was so excited to embark on a new adventure, so he went home and got a flashlight that would allow him to see inside.
A Ton Of Mines
Christopher spoke about that moment, saying, “When we bought the house, nobody ever told us about the fact that the estate had a lot of mines on it. We just sort of stumbled upon the gold mine one day and that was it. When I first saw it, I was so excited that I almost fell over myself. The only thing that I could think about was Indiana Jones and underground railroads.”
