Referenced WMS N/L notes:

Whilst researching Croesor and compiling a historical record, Adrian Barrell found a reference to a Rhaiadr mine as being in the Rhaiadr wood near Park Quarry, where a dyke containing copper could be traced for over ½ mile. “Tunnels” had been driven in at the western end and ore taken out.
