Bailey Level is a former gold mine and iron mine in the Forest of Dean, England. The mine and surface features are currently managed by volunteer members of Lea Bailey Light Railway Society.

The gold mine was started by the Chastan Syndicate in 1906. Shares were offered at £1 each (Шаблон:Inflation). Some 75,000 shares were sold. (Шаблон:Inflation) However, test workings at Lea Bailey and nearby Staple Edge concluded that the small amount of gold present could not be extracted economically and the syndicate was wound up in 1908.[1]

The mine was later extended and some Шаблон:Convert of iron ore were extracted — a small amount compared to the Шаблон:Convert extracted from the nearby Wigpool Ironstone Mine.[2]
