Pleasley Colliery No.2 South Shaft top area
The interior of the shaft top area of 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. Men and materials were mostly wound at this shaft; coal was wound at the No.1 downcast shaft.
The posters and signboards on the walls and superstructure form part of the current museum exhibit and do not necessarily represent the view of the area as it was during the working life of the mine.
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.
