Devon Colliery was the Alloa Coal Company's flagship mine. A Cornish-type engine by Neilson & Co of Glasgow was erected here in 1865 and continued in use until the early 1950s. The engine was dismantled in 1965 but the beam survives along with the restored enginehouse. Sadly the office use of the building does not seem to have materialised and it was empty when I visited.
