Clipstone Colliery Transfer Area
A national rail-DTb rail-road link providing facilities for rapid and continuous bulk goods and personnel exchange. Valley sited vertical and horizontal communication for goods and people offers conditions for the large-scale installation of experimental plant, etc.
A serviced plant pit adjoins an open floor area for small temporary enclosures which is covered by a serviced  accommodation deck containing living and working cells, and is the equivalent in its operation to the large static gantry installed at Hucknall.
The accommodation would be for those involved in continuous processes being undertaken in the transfer complex.
