Clipstone Colliery was a coal mine in the village of Clipstone, Nottinghamshire. The colliery opened in 1922 and operated until 2003. It was built by the Bolsover Colliery Company, transferred to the National Coal Board in 1947, and then operated by RJB Mining from 1994. The headstocks and powerhouse are grade II listed buildings, so they have been preserved.
By the late 1930s, it was producing 4,000 tons of coal per day
Two new headstocks and winding engines were constructed and were commissioned in 1953. The headstocks, built by Head Wrightson Colliery Engineering, were the tallest in Europe at the time. The winding engines, manufactured by Markham and Company, were Koepe friction winders, which enabled deeper coal seams to be exploited. Drum winders had traditionally been used in British mines but were designed to operate at a specific depth and had to be replaced if deeper shafts had to be sunk. The north or No.1 service shaft was used for personnel and transporting equipment. The south No.2 winding shaft was used to raise coal skips
