Waleswood Colliery

Waleswood Colliery was a coal mine situated between Swallownest and Wales Bar, near Rotherham, South Yorkshire, England.

The colliery was adjacent to the Rotherham to Clowne road and the main line of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway about 2 miles east of Woodhouse.

In 2016 it changed ownership and was moved to the Northamptonsie Ironstone Railway at Hunsbury Hill where it is undergoing a full restorative rebuild.

It was planned to return to steam during 2017 but the boiler required a much more extensive overhaul than was first thought.

The mostly new boiler is due back in the frames around Easter 2019 with steaming planned for early summer.
