Scope and Content Coal Preparation Plant, Killoch Colliery, Ayrshire Killoch Colliery was the second of five new super-pits built by the National Coal Board in Scotland to come into production in 1960. It was closed in 1988 and its towers demolished. Its Coal Preparation Plant now serves local open-cast mines. Raw coal is processed, sorted and washed in the Coal Preparation Plant. Killoch's plant was also used to treat coal from Barony Colliery, and, at the time of this photograph, was still operating to treat open-cast coal. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
