Primitive Coal Mining

Coal was first dug in the British
isles on the south shore of the Firth
of Forth. For centuries there were no
means of draining coal pits, and early
coal was obtained in billy districts,
where it could be reached by tunnel
ing. In some places shallow "bell
pits" were dug. In 1719 the deepest
coal mine in the country was only
800 feet deep. Gunpowder was first
used to blast coal in that year.
In pits where firedamp accumulat-
ed, it was exploded each morning by
"a resolute man of purpose" who
went down clothed in rags saturated
with water and provided with long
pole at the end of which was a
lighted candle. There was no form
