Worked coal from a depth of 380 feet, and from the Parkend High Delf seam at 861 feet. After 1884, compressed air cutters were introduced, and daily production rose to 240 tons. Electric winding gear was installed in 1916. It was one of the last major collieries producing household coal in the Forest of Dean. The closure was ultimately caused by water ingress, a result of earlier nearby mine closures.
