16 April 1844  to William Smith of Poolgreen for a pit, situate about 50 yards westward of the double gates leading to Edenwall Farm, on the waste land by the side of the turnpike road from Coleford to Parkend to get coal from the Coleford High Delf.

F3 296
18 August 1865  Mr. S. T. Thomas ‘I gave £15 for this colliery some years ago knowing it to be valueless having been worked out a long time ago’.  At least eight pits on the property.  Thomas would surrender the gale unless the dead rent was reduced.
The Crown, however, believed that the Coleford High Delf coal was still workable as in the Edinwall gale adjoining which had just started working it.  Believed that it was just an attempt to gain a reduction in the dead rent.
Also had Lonk and Patches Collieries.

16 February 1877  Forfeited.
