Part of Graig Colliery & Brick Works (nprn 507795). C19 tramway shown on 1st ed county OS map, disused by the time of the 2nd ed. The OS map shows it approximately 140m long ENE-WSW from the entrance to a coal level (nprn 507381), but only about 50m near the mine entrance is clearly visible, in the form of a 2m wide trackway rising diagonally up a gentle slope. The purpose of the tramway is unclear as it did not lead to a spoil tip and there is no level marked on the OS map at the top.
