The Barony A Frame Trust was set up in 1997 as a community led charitable Trust specifically to save and restore the iconic A Frame at the former Barony Colliery in Auchinleck, East Ayrshire.

Following the decision by Scottish Coal to close the pit, all of the mine buildings were demolished leaving the A Frame structure isolated in a derelict landscape. However, no one had banked on the depth of feeling for the former Barony Colliery and its unique A Frame. The community rallied around the mission to save the A Frame from demolition. and create a meaningful and sustainable monument to mining and mining communities.

The structure was in need of a major face-lift so, with assistance from East Ayrshire Council, the Trust set about raising £1.3m to carry out the work. Fundraising took far longer than was initially anticipated but by 2007 the remedial work to the A Frame was complete along with major landscaping and improvement works to the surrounding site. The end result is a sustainable, meaningful monument to the mining industry and the communities who worked in it.

I look down at Allie from the loft upstairs in our A-frame cabin. There were two twin beds up here while we slept in the queen bed down below so we didn't really use this space up there but it was neat.

This is what the A-frame looked like before the 2023 updates. Here it is being powerwashed in preparation for painting.

All three times I've been to Cannon Beach I've passed by this A-frame at some point during my travels. It reminds me of northern New Mexico.
