First Aid Room
New Ingleton Colliery was sunk by the New Ingleton Collieries Ltd in 1912-13 with the first coal wound in September 1914. By 1919 the output from the Six Foot seam was about 2,200 tons a week, whilst from 1921 working was concentrated in the deeper Four Foot seam and later the Yard Seam. Production ceased in February 1936 due to geological and economic problems and salvage continued until 1940. A few buildings survive around the former pithead including the first aid room where the red cross on the door is still evident over 70 years on.
