Coalville Clock Tower

Highlight • Historical Site

A branch line from the main Leicester to Burton railway line served Snibston No. 2 Colliery from 1836 to 1983.
The level crossing gates for its crossing of Belvoir Road, Coalville – seen here from the East - remain in situ.

Skills Area at Snibston Colliery Park

Highlight • Structure

Snibston's potential was spotted by George Stephenson, 'father of railways' whilst building a railway in the area. He bought the land when valuable coal reserves were discovered in the area. In 1832 he founded no. 1 and no. 2 pits that operated for for more than 150 years.

Although you can see the Colliery buildings and machinery, all evidence of the mining is gone and replaced by a wonderfully ecologically diverse park to explore. There is also a cafe to have a bite to eat and a museum to learn more about the mining history.
