Notes on the occurrence of wulfenite at Brandy Gill, Cumberland, and of leadhillite at Drumruck mine, Kirkcudbrightshire

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 March 2018

Extract

In October 1875 the late J. G. Goodchild recorded his then recent discovery of a mineral which he stated 'he believed' to be wulfenite and which he had found on an old mine dump near Carrock Fell, Troutbeck, Cumberland. One specimen only was, I believe, found by Mr. Goodehild, and this he presented to the Carlisle Museum, where it has been seen by myself, the label bearing the more precise locality of Brandy Gill.
