Description

Blaeberry Cleugh lead mine bouse team is a structure likely built in the second half of the 18th century. It is constructed from roughly-coursed and squared sandstone rubble using dry construction techniques. The bouse team features two battered walls, each approximately 3 metres high and 5 metres wide, standing about 3 metres apart. This structure likely served as a bridge to the tramway as well as a storage area for ore, with the vein worked probably being Ash Hill.
