This gallery is the second in the series and shows mining memorabilia and old machinery from its days as a working mine from 1922 to 2003.
Adco Properties are currently redeveloping the site into a multi-use leisure facility but are keen to preserve the mining heritage – giving a large section to a mining museum and keeping as many original features as possible.
Have a look through the second of our two galleries in the series and see if it brings back some memories.
