Local Spotlight: The National Mining Museum Scotland
Just a stone’s throw from the heart of our community lies the National Mining Museum Scotland, housed in the historic Lady Victoria Colliery. Once known as Scotland’s first ‘super-pit,’ this site was the lifeblood of Newtongrange from its opening in 1895 until its closure in 1981.
Today, it stands as one of the best-preserved Victorian collieries in Europe, featuring the country’s largest steam winding engine and iconic red-brick architecture that defines our local skyline. Whether you’re a local resident or a visitor exploring the ‘A Race Apart’ exhibition, the museum serves as a proud reminder of the grit and engineering brilliance that built Midlothian.
As a local locksmith, I’m proud to serve the homes and businesses surrounding this 5-star heritage landmark, ensuring the modern-day security of a village with such a deep industrial history.
