A group of three lead working coes, a shaft and a dressing floor on Longstone Edge is a Post-Medieval lead mining site located in Derbyshire. The monument comprises evidence of small-scale lead extraction activities typical of the region's mining operations, with the three coes (conical spoil heaps) representing waste from ore processing, accompanied by a working shaft and associated dressing floor where ore was sorted and prepared. The site dates to the Post-Medieval period, reflecting the continuation of lead mining traditions in the Derbyshire Peak District that had been established in earlier centuries. These remains constitute important archaeological evidence of the region's extractive industries and the methods employed by miners during this era.
