   Multi-section ladder...   
      
   I had the perception that in a workshop it is likely to fill with grit -   
   grinding dust, etc.   
      
   I have ordered a single section ladder of hopefully just the right   
   length.   
   Should arrive today.   
      
      
   That said - I realised that a ladder which would readily fit in a car   
   and could be carried without drawing a vast amount of attention to   
   yourselves to go exploring "our mining heritage" :-)   
   Adits emerge at above the highest tide height... Tide ranges are up to   
   7m here...
