Pit wheels, Ryhope Colliery
Pit winding wheels have been installed on the site of many former collieries as a reminder of past times. Between these two wheels is an additional semi-circle with relevant pictures rendered in wire. An "A" type access control gives onto the cycle path which forms part of National Cycle Network route 1.
