English: Pleasley Colliery - South Shaft, near to Pleasley, Derbyshire, Great Britain.
The shaft has been surrounded in concrete to provide air to Shirebrooke colliery 3 miles away. This is what saved the headstocks and engines from demolition. The railway yards, coal cleaners/sorters etc were not so lucky.
