Situated to the E of a track, 400m SW of Crosshill, this coal mine, which is depicted on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map (Stirlingshire 1899, sheet xxxv), is visible as a bing with a pit to the NNW. The Catalogue of Plans of Abandoned Mines indicates that the mine was abandoned in 1882 (Mines Department 1931).
