Situated on the edge of Chat Moss, in an area once full of collieries, lies the village of Astley Green. In the heart of the village stands Astley Green Colliery Museum which, but for the foresight of Lancashire County Council and several leading figures within the community, would have suffered the same fate as the other collieries in the area, total demolition. The museum houses Lancashire’s only surviving headgear and engine house, both of which now have scheduled monument and listed building status. Free to visit. Open Tuesday – Thursday – Saturday -Sunday 1.30pm – 5.00pm
