Chris Heath left this review about Winding Wheel

This pub was built in 2003 at the entrance to the Freeport Shopping Village (now called Junction 32). The Xscape Leisure Complex is also just a few hundred yards further away.
A "Winding Wheel" is the large pully wheel which stands upon a pit shaft operating the lift cage. This pub is close to where the old Glasshoughton Colliery used to be.
Originally built as a Brewers Fayre chain pub, but was taken over in 2006 by The Harvester Pub chain. Serves good value food and caters for families.
