Pond, Burradon
This pond lies on an area of land once occupied by Burradon Colliery. The colliery was sunk in the 1820s along with a waggonway running from the colliery to Killingworth Colliery to the south. From there the coal from Burradon Colliery continued its journey along waggonways to the River Tyne. On the 2nd March 1860, an explosion at Burradon Colliery killed 76 men and boys and the disaster took on national significance at a time when mining safety was poor and the families of disaster victims had to rely on charity. The colliery eventually closed on the 22nd November 1975. For a selection of detailed free to download walking routes in the area visit www.northtynesidewalks.co.uk
