Old Level Lead Mine (United Kingdom)

Old Level by Rampgill Burn, Nenthead, Cumbria. OS Ref: NY78954333.

This is an old level south east to the Rampgill Firestone adit. The level in question is only known as the Old Level on LLC plans, and its identification is the fact it is right by Rampgill Burn. The level only went for some 400m or so. It intersected the Hangingshaw Vein and was probably worked in the Firestone Sill, there are three shafts that intersect it, however these are all blocked.

Entry into the level is gained by removing some rocks covering timbers and you actually enter through the top of the passage as the entrance is fully blocked. There is a small drainage adit further down with a steady stream of iron stained water. The level is blocked after 10m or so.
