A low mound measuring 18 metres across has been severely damaged by drainage channels and cattle trod. The use of pillar-and-stall mining (cutting horizontal headings out of the bottom of the shaft, leaving pillars of coal to support the roof) meant shafts could be spaced wider apart. The best example of a widely spaced grid pattern of shafts on the Town Moor is on Nuns Moor, where four shaft heads form a square pattern. These shaft heads have larger spoil heaps than the Bell Pits, indicating deeper shafts and a later mining episode. A diagnostic feature of the landscape indicating pillar-and-stall mining is the subsidence of the surrounding ground surface, due to the caving in of the galleries especially after the removal of the roof supports. Such areas of mining subsidence effect large areas of the Moor.

A ring-bank of spoil set on a steep slope. A 1.4 metres high apron scarp surrounds a central hollow which measures 5 metres across and is 0.6 metres deep. As in the other shaft heads in the area the ridge-and-furrow seems to overlie it although this is probably later drainage.

A large 25 metres diameter circular ring-bank encloses a central hollow, measuring 10 metres in diameter and 0.3 metres deep. Again it appears that the ridge-and-furrow overlies the feature although as in the other cases this may be later drainage down the centre of the furrows.

A large irregular mound of spoil measuring 20 metres across surrounding a central hollow which is 0.4 metres deep. The feature could be spoil from a shaft head although two blocks of intersecting ridge-and-furrow and their associated headlands confuse the picture. A very low bank, measuring 0.2 metres high, is attached to the base of the spoil heap and encloses a roughly circular piece of ground to the south-east. This bank overlies the ridge-and-furrow and seems to be contemporary with the mound suggesting that the mound is later than the ridge-and-furrow.

A large spread ring-bank, measuring 20 metres across surrounded by low banks 0.4 metres high; the central hollow is 0.2 to 0.3 metres deep. This shaft does not fit into an organised pattern - it is likely to be a one-off mine or test digging.

A badly damaged ring-bank which is bisected by a pathway. There is a central hollow measuring 0.2 metres deep with a counterscarp bank 0.6 metres high on the west. This shaft does not fit into an organised pattern - it is likely to be a one-off mine or test digging.

A large hollow, measuring 3.8 metres across and 0.5 metres high where it is cut into the hillside. There is a 0.4 metres high counterscarp on the north-east and noth-west sides. This shaft does not fit into an organised pattern - it is likely to be a one-off mine or test digging.

A very well-preserved ring-bank of spoil measuring 19 metres north to south and 15.5 metres transversely, the central hollow is 0.8 metres deep. This shaft does not fit into an organised pattern - it is likely to be a one-off mine or test digging.

A circular ring-bank, measuring in places up to 0.4 metres high, surrounds a well preserved central hollow 0.38 metres deep; it is damaged on the south-east side. This shaft does not fit into an organised pattern - it is likely to be a one-off mine or test digging.

A very shallow depression with a surrounding bank of spoil on the south-east side. It lies in amongst the scarps of the putative prehistoric settlement (HER 5895). It is debatable whether this is indeed a shaft head or some other disturbance of the ground. This shaft does not fit into an organised pattern - it is likely to be a one-off mine or test digging.
