Description

Wolf's Shaft Engine House is a derelict mine pump engine house, likely built around 1907 for Condurrow United Mines. The structure is made of uncoursed granite rubble with quoins, featuring a bob wall constructed from dressed granite blocks and window arches made of variegated brick. The chimney is finished with red engineering brick. It has a rectangular plan oriented on a north-south axis, with the bob wall on the north side and a circular chimney attached to the south-east corner. The building consists of three stages that are set back over a basement. It includes round-headed openings, such as a bob-wall window with dressed granite voussoirs and a keystone. The chimney is complete and has moulded annular cornices on both stages. Inside, there are machinery mountings made of very large dressed granite blocks. Historically, it housed an 80-inch cylinder.
