Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Coalville Crossing Signal Box and tandem headgear. , Snibston Discovery Park The tandem headgear was developed by George Stephenson - of railway fame - to improve safety and productivity; the pit would no longer be dependent on a single shaft for lifting coal or in an emergency. This is one of only two still believed to exist in the UK, and is a scheduled monument. The actual structure is relatively modern, dating from 1942.
