Shuttle Eye Colliery

Shuttle Eye Colliery was a coal mine on the West Yorkshire Coalfield at Grange Moor between Wakefield and Huddersfield on the A642 road, in England.

[1] The colliery was started in 1862 by Lockwood and Elliott and had two shafts, the deepest 288 yards.

It produced coal from the Beeston and Black Bed seams.

Two drift mines at Gregory Spring in Hopton near Mirfield to the north were linked to Shuttle Eye in 1962.
