Latitude: 54°40'25"N
Longitude: 2°8'22"W
Relatively long levels and associated shafts working the Flushiemere Great, B and C veins along with Ryland Veins No.1 & 2.
The grid reference provided is for the London Lead Co.'s horse level. The company also drove an exploratory level from Blea Gill at NY91573036 which proved some small flats off the Great Vein in the Great limestone, but little work was done on them.
The mineralisation is unusual for the immediate area in that considerable quantities of barytes were present in Flushiemere C and the Rylands veins.
