    The whole area is embossed by this old lead mine, once the biggest lead producer in the UK. Without it Glenridding would not exist. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenside_Mine

      Nice place to check out if you're climbing Helvellyn, holds awesome historical importance.

        Interesting old mining area. Well worth detour over bridge descending from red tarn.
