'Snowman Toy' Police Blockade Site, Knollbeck Lane, Bramton, near Barnsley
Immediately to the right of this picture, behind the trees and houses,
is the former Pit Lane to the infamous Cortonwood Colliery … see …
Image
Back in 1984, during the Miners' Strike, the police lined up across Knollbeck Lane, just to the right of the steps shown, and blocked off access to the Pit Lane.
A memorable picture of this area and a miner taunting the police with a snowman toy can be seen by following this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_miners%27_strike_(1984%E2%80%931985) .
The Wikipedia picture also shows the Cortonwood Colliery entrance sign as described in the linked former Pit Lane picture.
The relevance of the snowman taunt … well, that's another story to investigate.
