- Place Notes
- Esh Winning has seen the growth of new housing estates in recent years but much of the older colliery village has gone.
There was a North, West and East Terrace all located in what is now empty land north of Esh Winning Industrial Estate. The industrial estate itself occupies the site of Esh Winning Colliery.
South Terrace, a later addition south of the colliery, was built in the 1870s or 1880s and still exists, while Lymington Terrace, further south across the River Deerness, formed an almost separate hamlet.
Its origin is uncertain, but it may have housed workers at a neighbouring brickyard. The terrace lay near Woodland Place and West View.
