A memorial headgear remnant of the Barony Colliery which operated from 1907-1989. Now a B-listed monument.The site contains a memorial to 4 miners who lost their lives in 1962 when one of the shafts collapsed. Their bodies were never recovered.
There are also information boards documenting the miners strike in 1984.Located behind the A-Frame there is a pump track, it is slightly overgrown but still ridable and an interesting route deviation.
