the location of the mine shown on the map is correct. When I was a boy the remnants of the mine took the form of a huge mound surrounded by agriculture. There remained a shaft to the west of the mound and another alongside the railway track which served New Stubbin colliery. We called the mound Red-Ash Hill.
