Administrative History	The Glendon Iron Company of Leicester acquired the mineral rights at Mapperley under lands belonging to the Drury Lowe family and started to sink a new colliery to the west of Mapperley in 1870. Mapperley Colliery was officially opened in 1872. The colliery was acquired from the Glendon Iron Company by the Mapperley Colliery Company in 1884. The colliery worked the Deep Soft, Deep Hard, Piper, Low Main and Kilburn seams. The company purchased Stanley Colliery at West Hallam from Derby Kilburn Colliery Company in 1908.In the 1930s the company drove a surface drift mine at Stanley called Hillside (later kown as Stanley No. 2). The company's collieries were transferred in 1947 into the control of the National Coal Board during the nationalisation of the coal industry.
