Scope and Content 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. Instead of having traditional headframes like earlier collieries, each of Killoch's two shafts has a tower with the winding gear mounted inside at the top. The Coal Preparation Plant, where raw coal is washed, sorted and processed is on the left. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
