Type and Period (1)

  • (Georgian to Victorian - 1750 AD? to 1850 AD)

  • None recorded

Full Description

On the hillside above Castledge are four to seven coal mine bell pit shafts. They are all sunk into the Simmondley coal seam. As they lie within parkland created when Errwood Hall was built in the 1830's - 1840's, they are unlikely to be later in date than this. (1)
