Full Description
A brick built structure 16.5m x 8m with four bays used as a vehicle repair shop at Snowdown Colliery prior to the closing of the colliery in the 1980s. Its previous use is unknown. Maps from the mid 20th century show narrow gauge railways running in to the building but these were removed by 1975. The building probably dates from the 1920s (1).
