Mountain Colliery, Buckley

1910

MOUNTAIN LANE SIDING OF THE BUCKLEY RAILWAY

 

This branch line extended from the original Buckley Railway terminus at Knowle Lane. It was in use for several years as a coal merchant's depot after the colliery closed. The colliery was situated on the left hand side. A spoil heap formerly existed on the right.

 

The land could have been used as a storage space for bricks prior to collection.
