Full description
Newman, P., 2005, Brookwood and Wheal Emma Copper Mines, Buckfastleigh, Devon: An Archaeological Survey, Figure 2 (Report - Survey). SDV359199.

The NRHE record [1433364 / SX67NW259] 'A blocked adit and blocked shaft in Brook Wood' locates this feature at SX6105077270 but gives no other source / information.
NB: This appears to have incorrectly located the feature near Wistman's Wood; Brook Wood lies within the map sheet SX76NW, not SX67NW. Grid reference for record 1433363 is SX 7114 6736, so it's likely this feature is connected. Presumably referred to in Newman's report. [Richards, A. F., 06/06/2022].
