Gas vent
The Fife Coastal Path crosses the site formerly occupied by the Michael Colliery and this concrete slab with a mine gas vent fenced off in its centre is evidence of that. The Michael Colliery, Scotland's biggest and deepest coal mine, opened in 1897 and closed in September 1967 after a seam of coal ignited 1800 feet below the ground killing nine men. A monument was erected in East Wemyss in 1992 on the 25th anniversary of the fatal fire. Three years later, the pithead gear was demolished and little remains to remind one of this once-thriving colliery.
