Description (or HER record listing)
NEHL - North End Colliery was one of the many pits on Cockfield Fell in the late 19th century. This colliery was small - with one above ground building and a coal shaft next to a group of sidings. They connected via tramway to a depot under the Gaunless Viaduct, and appears to have utilised an older tramway which led further south west. The colliery disappears off of maps by the 1910s.
