Crow Trees Nature Reserve occupies a triangle of land bounded on two sides by a steep limestone escarpment. Once the location of mining activity with several early shafts sunk in the vicinity and a waggonway connection to the Clarence Railway at Coxhoe, the site contains the remains of the final colliery winding foundation, and ponds created using springs from the base of the escarpment to provide the mine with water.
