Hi,
I don't think that it is on the coalfield. Certainly the Coalfield Guide
for 1950 doesn't show a colliery near where the motorway is now. The
nearest colliery was Desford some 5 miles or so north of the M69. It
also doesn't look like a colliery winder to me. Round that part of the
world I would think either granite quarries or brickpits.
Cheers.
