Site of shaft buried below the cobbled SE corner of High St & Refectory Lane, Dysart. Worked a small-scale area of irregular pillar-and-stall workings in the Dysart Main Coal that was possibly worked in association with the Engine Pit located ca. 100m further E. These are shown as being contiguous with extensive 19th century Lady Blanche Pit workings on mine plan S728.
