Description
The chimney and attached boiler house at Caphouse Colliery, likely built around 1876, features a stone chimney with a later brick upper section and a brick boiler house topped with an asbestos roof. The square chimney tapers, while the upper part is straight-sided and reinforced with iron straps. The boiler house has two levels and houses two cylindrical Lancashire boilers encased in brickwork. A later addition includes a hopper feed and chain-grate system at the end opposite the chimney. These boilers powered the winding engine located just to the south. At the time of construction, the mine was owned by the Lister Kaye family of Denby Grange, but it went bankrupt in 1914, leading to a new company taking over in 1917.
