I've asked this before on another photo but without much response, but does anyone here who was involved with the place remember there being a rotting Jaguar Xk120?. My dad often use to see this car behind the fence in the yard, half buried on the ground but visible enough that he could tell what model it was and assured me it was a classic Jag Xk120 (or maybe a 140/150) by the design of the grill. Does anyone know if the owners of the place owned such a car?.
A right 'gravel cruncher' if ever I see one, Ozy.
Db, Bill Ratcliffe always had one. I used to live in the houses behind the lorry cab. The one you're talking about would have been in the area of the 'junk' Ozymandias refers to. Ozy, the pit shaft is in the yard, just behinfìd where this photo is taken I think, it's on the old maps. Barrow Lane Colliery I think it was called
