Kirkby-in-Ashfield - The Countryman
For a 2010 photo of the pub with a different colour-scheme, please see Image This pub was previously called the Limeburners Arms Inn. It was the venue for the inquest for the 10 miners killed in the shaft cage accident at Bentinck Colliery on 30 June 1915 (see http://www.healeyhero.co.uk/rescue/Fatalities/Notts/Notts-B1.html ). The old name of the pub makes me wonder why there would have been the need for lime at this point. I suspect that the building of the London extension to the Great Central Railway in the 1890's generated a big demand for building materials (including lime). This demand could have been easily met here because there is an exposure of Permian limestone (Cadeby Formation Dolostone) about 200 metres to the north-east of the pub (see British Geological Survey map). The railway line ran just to the north of the pub and there was a railway station, Kirkby Bentinck, also about 200 metres away (see http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/k/kirkby_bentinck/index.shtml ).

Land being developed by Spring Meadow
I don't know what this development is. Until fairly recently, the land was a field.

Bentinck Colliery winding engine house.
The colliery originally had three steam winding engines and this one was temporarily "preserved" when the others were scrapped. The remains of the head-gear still cling to the front wall. The shaft remained in use with new head-gear from a different direction.

Bentinck Colliery steam winding engine
Built by John Warner & Son of Hanley c1890 and installed here 2nd hand in 1915. Stopped 1978/9 and finally scrapped 1991. On an earlier visit they put steam on and limped it round for us. I have a horrible feeling that on this occasion we "bunked it" without permission - with a live colliery around it.
