Description

The Engine House at Mangotsfield Church Farm Colliery is a Grade II listed structure built in 1881. It is constructed from Pennant sandstone and consists of the remains of a two-storey building. The south side features an arched doorway on the ground floor and a large arched opening above, both adorned with dressed keystones and quoins. There are additional remains of openings in other areas of the building. The interior lacks a roof structure, machinery, or fittings. At the time of the survey in August 1987, the site was heavily overgrown. This engine house is significant as it is a very rare above-ground survival from a once extensive coalfield.

Engine House receives an average of 840 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 56% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 60% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 34 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 52% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
