Rotherham Main
Rotherham Main was situated at the foot of Canklow Woods in the river valley near an ancient ford across the River Rother. Work on the colliery was begun in 1890 when the first shaft was sunk. The owners were John Brown and Co. Ltd. who built pit houses and a school in Canklow for the colliers and their families. The colliery closed down in 1954. I can find no sign that this colliery ever existed so I presume it has all disappeared under later road development.

Apparently it covered the site now occupied by London and Scandinavian Metals and the derelict land alongside. Airshaft heads are all that remain.
