Image: © Alan Walker Taken: 16 Jan 2018
This photograph was taken from the site of the Silverhill Colliery and is looking toward an area that was the route of a mineral railway line to the colliery from the Great Northern Railway. The line ran to the right of the hedge bounding the footpath and to the left of the corrugated building ahead. The Ordnance Survey map of the area describes the houses on the right as ‘Silverhill Cottages.’ The Image on the left of the photograph leads, through reclaimed woodland, toward an area that was once occupied by a brick works associated with the Teversal Colliery.
