(Location cited as NT 333 636). Lady Victoria Colliery, Newtongrange. Sunk 1890-4 by the Lothian Coal Co Ltd. The surface buildings here are extensive, and are steel-framed with brick cladding or infilling. There is a very fine steam winding-engine built by Grant, Ritchie and Co Ltd, Kilmarnock in 1894, with 3ft 6ins (1.06m) by 7ft (2.13m) cylinders and Cornish drop valves. This is supplied with steam by a bank of seven Lancashire boilers. There is a tall circular-section brick chimney.
