  • Description

    "This green corridor at the eastern end of the former mining village of Quaking Houses is on the site of the old coal mine. The old pit wheel can be seen in the background. The name possibly derives from being originally settled by Quakers, prior to the development of the mine." Photo by Oliver Dixon, 2014.
