VIRTUAL TOUR OF Hough Level

This section of the mine leads ultimately to Brynlow Mine. On the way, you pass the boat which was put into the mine in the 1930s. The "dock" is at a point where the two tunnels, from Engine Vein and from Brynlow, met with an error of about 2m laterally and 0.5m vertically. You can go out by swimming to Brynlow or can walk dry-shod back to the bottom of Bear Pit and Blue Shaft. If you carry on south you will end up at Brynlow. North will take you to Bear Pit eventually.

Please note that this tour involves over 250 locations already and getting pictures and writing text for them all is taking time! There may be some blank pages in the tour but keep pressing the Next Stop button and the trip should take you round the mines. The public tours are shorter than the Club members' tours.
