The Barony A Frame is all that is left off the Ayrshire pit near Auchinleck known as The Barony. The head gear was erected in 1954 and is a Grade II listed structure as unique in Britain. It serves as a memorial to the four miners who died when Barony's No.2 Shaft suddenly collapsed in 1962, burying them 1300ft underground and covered in rubble. The pit had a maximum output of 360000 tons of coal per year but closed in 1989 when geological problems were encountered with the only active (No.4) shaft, plunging the area into industrial decay and high unemployment from which it has struggled to recover.
The narrow-gauge railway was used underground to transport coal in "hutches" to the surface was washing and grading.

An intriguing structure on the beach. I didn't see any information about what it was and the next time I was in Whitstable all trace of this little A-frame hut had gone.
This is what the tall trestle bridge design might look like all put together. You can see the lack of the outer connecting beams holding the A-Frames together, only the inner beams remain.
And yet, I don't dislike it as much as I thought I would. This design is actually heavily based on this.
Still, there is a certain mystique about a design that uses the outer beams as well.
Of course to build this monstrosity to the full 6-baseplate length I'd like to, I'm going to need to find some 550 1x1x5 bricks (not including those I already own), plus all the other parts.

My Dad built me this playhouse a long time ago from scraps he had in his barn and with no plan. He was a good carpenter! It now acts as a shed.
A-frames were instrumental in Korea just as recent as the 1970s when I lived there. They are still in use today and come in various sizes and are typically used for carrying heavy loads.
