Mere stone in Mohope

For walkers on Isaac's Tea Trail the lone mere stone is a poignant reminder of the time when land at Mohope was held under common ownership until around the late 1700s. It would also have acted as a marker for the established path for livestock to be driven. It also served to differentiate land use between summer hay crops and winter pasture.

Old tailings from the Keirsleywell Lead Mine

This view is from Isaac's Tea Trail near the Blind Burn at Mohope. Isaac Holden was a lead miner at the Keirsleywell Lead Mine until around 1832. Cattle graze the land, as they did long before and after the years of lead mining.
