Mine adit, probably blocked.
See Lochnell Mine (Williamsons Level) [Site #1032] for main registry entry.
Alternative Names: None recorded.
Notes: Given coordinates & alt approx, based on mine plan ('Old Level' label shown by this locality on OS 6" & 25" maps). Adit shown on BGS GeoIndex & 1:10k map at [NS 87181 13158], although this is inconsistent with mine plan; it is possible that these relate to a shaft that reached the Williamson Level, & that the Dod Level adit mouth was located further NW.
