Historic winding engine running
The Winding House is built on the site of the former Elliot Colliery.
The museum’s centre-piece is the original Victorian winding engine.
This remarkable piece of machinery was used to operate the cages
which transported men and coal between the surface and the mine
below. Our dedicated and enthusiastic engine volunteers maintain
and run the engine for members of the public at 12pm on the last Saturday
of every month.
