    thank you for sharing these wonderful photos.
    Kindest wishes

  2. Thanks.
    Can't say I've even heard of the houses you mention. Where are they located?

    If any readers can help out with where there are some photos of the houses please pipe up.

  3. I have got a couple of the roundhouse on my web site:

    About half way down the page of photos, it was a misty day when I took them so they are not the best of photos I'm afraid!

  4. Great memories of the pit heap as a child, in its working day the pit was probably half the height again with steep sides,which we played on.
    After the closure and levelling, myself and a schoolmate were the very first to plant sapling trees on the south facing side,organised through our school...the buddle.
    Must have been around 1972/3
