The ruins, earthworks and other remains of the Coldberry lead mine. The monument lies between the Hudeshope and Bow Lee becks. The early history of the lead workings at Coldberry is uncertain though more than two million tons of material had been removed from the hush prior to the mid-18th century.
At the east end of the hush stand the remains of the largely mid-19th century Coldberry Mine built by the London Lead Company. The mine includes a two-storey mine shop/ lodging shop, a stable and smithy block, and a roofed powder store. All are Grade II Listed Buildings. Scheduled. (9)
