Small quarry-based mine is located near a sharp bend in the road on Viney Hill, in one of the upper quarries. It takes its name from an individual who reportedly fell into it. The mine is in poor condition and consists of two entrances connected by a tight, twisting passage.

The sandstone extracted here was used for paving slabs and roof tiles. Due to the unstable nature of the workings and increased trespassing by local children, the entrances were gated. The mine is also a seasonal habitat for bats, including both lesser and greater horseshoe species, although only in low numbers.

There are local rumours of a larger, older stone mine on Viney Hill, but no entrances have been found. Some old shallow surface workings are visible near Pritchard’s Hole.
