Sir George Bruce's COAL MINES IN THE SEA

Mining under the sea at Culross 1575-1676

Description

In 1590, Sir George Bruce built a stone tower out in the waters of the Firth of Forth. Down through it a shaft was sunk, 40ft to the seam of coal below, and a corresponding shaft was dug for drainage. It was a breathtaking feat of 16th-century engineering.
