Pleasley Colliery South Shaft
The No.2 South Shaft at Pleasley Colliery. This was formerly the upcast shaft where air and mine gases were drawn up the shaft by the ventilation fan from the mine workings below. The shaft sides were encased by a concrete and brick structure in order to stop outside air from short-circuiting the ventilation system. Entry to the shaft area was via a pair of air-lock doors.
The two holes in the roof were where the winding ropes entered the shaft top.
Pleasley Colliery is situated just inside the Derbyshire border, about 5.5 km from the centre of Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. It is now a mining museum which is steadily being developed.
