Combermere Colliery

Combermere Colliery was a coal mine operating on the Manchester Coalfield after 1867 in Shakerley, Tyldesley, Greater Manchester, then in the historic county of Lancashire, England.
Combermere Colliery's two shafts, one for Underground [mine ventilation|ventilation], were sunk to the Rams mine at 315 feet and the black and White mine at 600 feet by the Tyldesley Coal Company and opened in 1867. The colliery had a short life and closed in 1893. The company built a brickworks using fireclay from the mine at Combermere and the railway to it operated until the mid-1930s.
