📋 About This Mod
Left-Hand Mine Revised
After using Markarth Outskirts for the longest time, it unfortunately does not touch upon Left-Hand Mine which is also just outside Markarth, so, taking inspiration from Markarth Outskirts I decided to overhaul the little mining settlement to be much more than just a handful of small homes.

Description
This overhaul adds multiple new large structures such as a small dock, large structures hugging along the cliffside, winding around the back end of the settlement, the new structures introduce two new interior spaces, one of which is a ruined warehouse, now crumbling and left to collapse alongside an abandoned Miners Barracks, as all the miners have left to fight in the civil war or have succumb to Forsworn raids on the area...
I would highly recommend using Markarth Outskirts alongside my mod for an amazing Markarth exterior collection, especially as they fit together almost seamlessly, a patch is provided for a minor clipping with a cliff from Markarth Outskirts. Lux Via is also a good addition to the space as it adds minor details to the bridge and surrounding roads, a patch is provided too to disable the wooden bridge at the side of the entry to Left Hand as it looks out of place now, but it isn't necessary.
