Update from contributor Andrew Cromar: the winding engine house and workshops were retained as Haig Colliery Mining Museum which became insolvent in 2016. The site appears to be owned now by West Cumbria Mining Limited who propose to open the new Woodhouse Colliery. Google Street View has views all around the remaining buildings as at 2010 and there is no sign of the baths.
