F Pit Winding House

The 'F' pit winding house is a colliery building constructed from brick with a Welsh slate roof. It is a single tall storey structure, measuring four by three bays, and features a low three-bay porch on the west side that contains a door on the return. The windows are round-headed sashes with glazing bars set in brick panels that have dog-tooth decoration. There are small blocked round-headed openings on the north side that were formerly used for exhaust pipes, and the lower half of each bay is blind. Inside, there is a cast iron balcony and machinery made by the Grange Iron Company, which was installed in 1888. The building has a king-post roof with double tie-beams. Historically, the first shaft of 'F' pit was sunk in 1777.
