Small Industrial Building. Small brick-built structure at the back of the Renishaw Colliery/Ironworks site: semi-elliptical cast iron window. Possibly a residual building of the former Renishaw Colliery. (1)
This building could not be located on a visit in May 2007. The whole area had been recently redeveloped as housing, and the building has probably been demolished. Renishaw Iron Works are shown on Sanderson's Map of the Country Twenty Miles Round Mansfield. (2)
