FREE PARKING. Only £2 entry to support work on the buildings.

126 new homes development next to the headstocks was approved by committee last night.
We would like to thank Paul Peacock Council leader for taking the time to push for improvements to the proposal.
Substantial contributions from the developer will include £150,000 for transport, £24,000 for bus stops, education £525,000, special education £90,322, library stock £4366 and NHS £123,732.
There will also be 3.5 Ha of land allocated off site as mitigation measures to increase biodiversity. I understand this will form part of a legally binding agreement.
Newark and Sherwood council officers considered that the benefits in terms of ecology improvements and providing much needed homes and some affordable homes outweigh the negatives.
The developer had addressed the majority of concerns previously raised such as highways and parking.
To be clear this development is not connected in any way to the headstocks, we will continue to offer shows and events for the enjoyment of the community and use the money raised to continue our fight to protect the buildings.

⛏️ Did you know you can go 𝙄𝙉𝙎𝙄𝘿𝙀 the Clipstone Headstocks for museum & mine tours?!

𝘼𝙣𝙙 𝙖𝙡𝙨𝙤 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙖 𝙗𝙖𝙨𝙝 𝙖𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙤𝙤𝙧 𝘾𝙧𝙖𝙯𝙮 𝙂𝙤𝙡𝙛 𝙩𝙤𝙤 (𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢 𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙞𝙖𝙡 𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙖𝙡𝙨 𝙛𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 𝙞𝙣𝙨𝙞𝙙𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙋𝙤𝙬𝙚𝙧𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙚!) ⛳

⛏️ The tours provided by volunteers give children & their families an educational insight into the history of the building and what life was like as an active colliery for workers 'back in the day'👷

⛏️ You'll don a hard hat as you descend into the tunnel to get a feel of being a worker in that environment. Amazing for children to see and experience the enormity of the Powerhouse & understand what it was used for.
