It was closed in 1988 and its towers demolished. Its Coal Preparation Plant now serves local open-cast mines. The two towers take the place of traditional headframes and contain winding gear. The building with the wedge-shaped vents on the right hand edge of the picture is the Fanhouse. The complex to the left is the Coal Preparation plant. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
