- "There was an inheritance dispute among relatives as to ownership of the mines and this resulted in a law suit which was heard in the Court of Chancery in 1682. Depositions of witnesses who were familiar with the mines testified that under the management of one of the disputants they had been very productive. “In his testimony, Simon Warde, a smelter stated that he had been a smelter at the Clints Mill for the past twenty years and that the mill was capable of smelting slag lead.” (from a book by a Mike Gill who in turn, had made use of research carried out by L.O. Tyson and published in the journal, ‘British Mining No 50’ (1994).)
