Whitehaven

  • Description

    "This is the year the pit closed. Clearance was well under way and the left hand head gear has gone. The right hand has been preserved. The John Wood haulage engine in the foreground has now been scrapped. The site is a museum and retains the two winding engines." Photo by Chris Allen, 1986.
