Kilnhurst Colliery

Kilnhurst Colliery
The almost total destruction of the South Yorkshire coal industry means that the physical remains of the pits are rapidly disappearing. Kilnhurst Colliery, formerly known as either Thrybergh or Thrybergh Hall Colliery, was situated on the southern side of the village of Kilnhurst, near Rotherham, The pit was merged into the South Manvers complex in the 1950s and coal winding then ceased, with the No.4 shaft then used for men and materials. The colliery closed in 1988 and now only a few surface buildings survive in industrial use.
