The main mine began as a pair of tunnels dug into the hillside in the Barnsley bed seam. As time went on, vertical shafts were sunk to reach the deeper seams. In the 1960s there were three shafts in the pit yard and a fourth, for extra ventilation, about a mile to the east. At that time around 17,000 tons of high quality coal were produced each week. After the 1984-5 miners strike, the men from North Gawber colliery were also transferred to Woolley. The pit finally closed in 1987. Member of the P.B.F.A.
