La Manche Mines was a settlement in Newfoundland and Labrador.[1] It was located southeast of Arnold's Cove and near to Rantem. It had a population of 23 in 1941[1] and last recorded inhabitants in the mid-20th century, the total being 1 (one).

The area was formerly a mining site, reportedly due to its large deposits of lead,[1] that was abandoned many years ago.[citation needed] It is not a populated community.
