Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
This paper describes a project prompted by a previous excavation of a haystack steam boiler in a small wood near Swannington in Leicestershire. In common with other archaeological investigations of industrial sites, fieldwork was supported by extensive documentary research. Excavation and clearance revealed a series of demolished structures thought to be part of an engine house. Maps and colliery records enabled conclusions to be reached concerning the operations of the coal mine, whlle comparison with similar sites indicated that the engine house had once contained an inverted beam pumping engine, an unique piece of machinery in this county. | ||
