Over the past couple of years a few individuals have been considering possibilities with regards to the derelict Weigh House and deck on the former colliery site at Alveley. We gained enough interest from a small group of hard working and enthusiastic people to form a constituted group and now we are in the very early stages of consultation to try and relocate the weighbridge deck and position a new build Weighhouse as a heritage information point at the Severn Valley Country Park to house new acquisitions and interpretation boards and open it up on occasional heritage days. Funding needs to be attracted for such a project.

We aim to make our vision a lasting tribute to people who have worked in the coal industry so that future generations are educated and reminded of those who have given so much over generations to shape the local communities and the economic fortunes of the country.
