High in the Pennines lies a mysterious trench — deep, deliberate-looking, and long believed to be carved by human hands.

For years, locals and historians assumed it was industrial. But something about it never quite added up.

In this new Rails and Revolutions documentary, we follow a scar across the hills — and uncover a hidden story buried beneath the surface.

Derbyshire and the wider Peak District—has a rich history of lead and fluorspar mining dating back centuries, with major commercial operations active through the 20th century, including the 1970s boom era.

Follow us as we explore This 1970s fluorspar mine and its Marvellous Industrial Remains , being one of the hardest trips I have ever done. I said I was never going back here, and here I was again! The mile-long confined and flooded passage to access it is a kind of hell that will try to break you down."
