Description

The heapstead is constructed of dressed sandstone, patched in places with brick, and with timber baulks and iron fixings. It forms a terrace in an 'L'shape from the NE corner of the eastern winding engine house to the N side of the western winding engine house. It is roughly 6 to 8m high and strongly battered from bottom to top. Lines of putlog holes can be seen where the screens for sizing the coal were fixed to the wall, and a stone-lined tunnel enters the heapstead from an arch on the N side which would formerly have connected to the shaft.
