It is believed Hawkins identified this shaft in his 1994 report but that the Watching Brief for the quarries (2003-2008) were unable to locate it underground and commented that it may not exist.

It is consequently regarded as lost. It would have been under a building in the garden of 17 Oxford Place.

Alternative Names: None recorded.
