Winding

Situated 1km south west of Ruabon, and in the middle of a caravan business, is this vertical winding engine house, built 1855-6 as one of the original structures of the Wynnstay Colliery. It is listed Grade II* as an exceptionally good example of the building type which is said to be the oldest surviving architectural monument in the North Wales Coalfield. It is also a Scheduled Ancient Monument.

j' aime le patrimoine industriel ancien ; et l 'environnement de ces caravanes d'occasion , renforce l 'idée de la fuite du temps.
