Jane Pit is a 19th century coal mine built by Henry Curwen, lord of the manor in Workington. It contains the best surviving example of the ornate castellated style of colliery architecture that was a feature of the large landowner involvement in the Cumbrian coal industry during the nineteenth century.
Dedicated to John Christian Curwen, Workington's MP at the beginning of the nineteenth century, 'Curwen's Column' is impressive in height and stature. The structure is made from steel rails manufactured in Workington steel works before it closed, and so is tied to two notable contributors to Workington town life.
