Chatterley Whitfield

Chatterley Whitfield Colliery is a disused coal mine on the outskirts of Chell, Staffordshire in Stoke on Trent, England. It was the largest mine working the North Staffordshire Coalfield and was the first colliery in the UK to produce one million tons of saleable coal in a year.

The colliery and pithead baths complex are on Historic England's Heritage at Risk Register due to being in very bad condition and not in use.[1] In September 2019, it was named on the Victorian Society's list of the top ten most endangered buildings in England and Wales.[2]
