Cobb's Engine House, Engine house in Warley, England.

The brick structure of Cobb's Engine House features a tall chimney rising 95 feet high with a tapering design from base to top.

Built in 1831, this Grade II listed building contained a steam pump that extracted water from Windmill End Colliery until its closure in 1928.

The engine house represents the industrial development of West Midlands, demonstrating the engineering methods used in 19th-century mining operations.

Located near Windmill End Junction within Warren's Hall nature reserve, visitors can access the site where the Dudley Canal meets Netherton Tunnel Branch.

The original Newcomen type engine from this structure now resides at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan, following its 1930 relocation.
