This pit boasted the last working steam winding engine in Leicestershire. Unfortunately the mine officially closed at 12 noon on Thursday 12th April 1990 - the day this recording was made.
This compilation features the 1880's steam engine in operation together with views around the working pithead and surface buildings.

The engine has since been moved to the Snibston industrial museum, and the buildings have been demolished.
