Conduit Colliery Company had several collieries in the Norton Canes/Brownhills area. The main two were No. 3 and No. 4 collieries. No. 3
had three shafts. Sinking began there in 1858, but it was some years later before production began, as sinking conditions were very poor. The colliery closed in 1962. No. 4 Colliery had two shafts, which were formerly Norton Green Colliery. They were sunk in 1874 and closed in 1933.
The Conduit Colliery Company was purchased by Littleton Collieries Ltd. in 1930 for £50,000.
