New Fancy Colliery - remains of pumping machinery
New Fancy was a colliery that operated from 1852 to 1944 with up to 700 workers and a peak production of 500 tons/day. During shaft consolidation work the remains of two pump bobs were revealed. One (not seen here) is part buried and projects from the ground while this one has been displaced and is lying on it side. Unfortunately the undergrowth looks to be reclaiming them. This is an L-shaped bob with attached bearings. There is a masonry wall representing the pit bank beyond and at the bottom is a sign revealing the site of the screens.
There is a better presented example at Foxes Bridge Colliery.
