Clintsfield Enginehouse


There are records of coal mining at Clintsfield in North Lancashire from the later eighteenth century and there are extensive surface signs of earlier workings to be found nearby. The surviving buildings housed in 1839 a 5 horsepower beam pumping engine and associated boiler and equipment. After the pit finally closed around 1856 the engine house was converted to a dwelling and this ensure its survival, albeit in a decayed condition with just the stump of the chimney remaining. The coal seam worked here never exceeded 2 feet in thickness and the investment in steam pumping equipment can scarcely have been paid for by the likely level of production.
