Title	Whaley Bridge Incline
Date	20th Cent
Description	Installed in 1833, the short 180 yard incline with a gradient of 1:13½, rises some 40'. The 10 hp winding engine was out of use by 1862 due to colliery subsidence, and substituted by a horse-operated capstan. The building in the background with the chimney is a former colliery, possibly Bingswood.
