Killingworth High Pit aka Killingworth Colliery in Tyneside, North England, is where, in 1814 George Stephenson, enginewright at the colliery, built his first locomotive 'Blücher' with the help and encouragement of his manager, Nicholas Wood, in the colliery workshop behind his house 'Dial Cottage' on Lime Road. This locomotive could haul 30 tons of coal up a hill and was used to tow coal wagons along the wagonway from Killingworth to the Wallsend coal staithes. Although Blücher did not survive long, it provided Stephenson with the knowledge and experience to build better locomotives.
