Former colliery housing at Coppice Road (3)
Built of local stone in 1873/4, and consisting of four blocks of 8, 8, 8 and 10 cottages, this row is collectively known as Newtown. Problems arose over subsidence from mining in the early 1900s and these cottages had to be supported with metal ties, and pieces of metal which can be seen today. Classed at present as a locally important site, they may receive grade II listing in the future. (This view, 3rd & 4th rows of 8)

The Old Pump House
This takes its name from the last use of the building - it contained pumping equipment to help drain other local mines after coal ceased to be extracted here - but this was in fact the winding engine house for the Lady Pit. Once derelict, it has been sympathetically restored and converted to offices. The right hand extension is entirely modern.
