Newstead Village was created for the miners after the shafts were sunk in 1874. The old village was built in 1874, and the new village houses were built in 1920. Newstead Village did not exist before the colliery was sunk The buildings on the left you though were a church were actually 2 chapels. They were built that close as they are on the Newstead Annesley boundary line. The terraced houses were for Newstead miners only, Annesley has its own terraced housing and the pits were owned by 2 different mining companies. Newstead has not had anymore than 1 train station since the 1960s. The graffiti wall is the approx location of the number 1 shaft and headstocks from Newstead colliery
