Site Record

Situated just to the NW of a stream gulley is this square stone lined pithead. The opening is on top of a kind of revetted terrace, the revetment being about 2.5m high. The top of the shaft itself is about 1.25m square and perceived depth (the shaft is evidently filled with rubble) about 3m. One of the named pits from the early C19th Owen & Colby collection. 25m above O.D.
