Maltby Colliery in happier times
Maltby Colliery commenced sinking in 1907 with production starting in 1911. The mine had a difficult time in the past few years and in February 2007 was sold to Hargreaves Services by UK Coal plc. With a workforce of around 500 it was producing c800,000 tonnes of coal a year of which more than 60% went to Drax power station. The colliery also supplied coking coal to the Monckton coking plant. Finally defeated by geological difficulties the pit has now closed and is being stripped.
