Ledston Luck Colliery - November 2014

With no one playing out I thought I would take a spin over to Yorkshire, only to be faced with fail after fail.

 Ledston Luck Colliery

Ledston Luck Colliery, sadly like the coal industry - not much left. What we do have is two winding houses, listed with English Heritage as industrial monuments. One is sealed tight, both are pretty knackered.

The Ledston Luck pit was sunk in the 1870s and in its later life formed part of the now closed Selby Super Pit.

Not much to add really, yet another reflection of the erasure of our industrial heritage - very sad.
