Highhouse Colliery
Highhouse Colliery, Auchinleck, commenced production in 1894. Owned by Bairds & Dalmellington Limited from 1931 until nationalisation, the two shafts were 177m and 174m deep. In 1948 output was 420 tons per day, 185,000 tons per annum, using longwall and stoop and room working. 473 employees. There were screens for dry coal but washing was done at the nearby Barony Colliery. The mine was closed in 1983 and this headgear and winding house, complete with steam winder, are the main remaining structures. They have been listed by Historic Scotland.
