Lancashire Mining Museum

Lancashire Mining Museum
I called at the mining museum at Astley Green where I was made very welcome by the volunteers.

The steel lattice headgear for Number 1 Shaft is the only colliery headgear remaining in Lancashire. The structure, which is over 100 feet high, was built by Head Wrightson & Co. in 1912 and replaced the original wooden shaft sinking headgear.
