Default Newton Hall Colliery

Busy transcribing Monumental Inscriptions from St James Church Shilbottle:

Spotted this reference to "Newton Hall Colliery" which is a mine I've not heard of before:


Underneath are interred the mortal remains of Edward Crisp of Newton Engine Lodge, who after 33 years of industrious service as Banksman at Newton Hall Colliery died 23 Feb 1833 aged 58 years. Also of his Mother in Law, Mary Guthrie of Newton, who died Nov 1 1831 aged 81 years. Also William Guthrie who died March 15 1844 aged 93 years.
