Semi detached housing at the former pit head of Woolley Colliery. Houses built at a time when the terraced housing right next to the pit, which was built in 1893, was gradually reducing to expand the colliery site. These earlier houses and the main part of the pit are outside the borders of South Yorkshire. The houses would have been occupied by miners and their families. Woolley Colliery remained open until 1987 (Gill 2007b). This area formerly consisted of fields between two areas of woodland indicating the fields were probably assarts. There is no legibility of the enclosed landscape.
