The
Firestone Level is part of the Rampgill Mine workings and runs parallel above
the Rampgill Vein right up to the county border. A branch also follows the
Rampgill Sun Vein, which then deviates heading for the Rampgill Second Sun
Vein. It was started in 1830 to give better access to the higher horizon
workings and to improve ventilation.
