I have found the enterence to an old iron level near Pontypool. Landowner/lease holder relations seem good. I need help opening it up. There are two problems. The enterence is collapsed deliberatly so some heavy lifting is needed. The enterence is flooded.
The water level can I think be lowered by restoring the mines old drainage... 50 yards of small ditch should be enougth.
If the level is like others in the area it is worth the effort what I can see of original tunnel is good quality.
So if anyone has enthusiasm for such a dig please contact me.
