Roundwood Colliery was a coal mine situated in the Don Valley, about 2 miles north of Rotherham, South Yorkshire, England on the borders of Rotherham and Rawmarsh.
Coal gathering in the Aldwarke area, lands of the old manor which stretch across the Don Valley from Parkgate to Thrybergh, goes back to the 17th century with documents relating to tenants' rights of way over the grounds and the river Dunne at Aldwarke ford, on both sides of river; and to any person fetching coals from pits. Earlier records still refer to charkcole to be cut in Rounde woodde near Aldwarke Manor house. It is from Rounde woodde that this colliery takes its name.
