True Mick. I was surprised to see it - then I came across another further on! Took a photo of it but too dark by then. The place is like a warren with old coal mines. You'll see them marked on the old OSI map. Alan.

Thanks Poppy. Yes, it's all that is left of a, once thriving industry. When you stop to think of the hussel and bussel that must of went on here, and now it's just an empty field, save for a lone chimney stack.

Incredible how things change...it's hard to imagine how different this area was when the chimney was first erected.

Great photo Alan, like 3.

Cheers, Maarten
