The derelict Mountain Colliery"

Mountain Colliery, Buckley

1950

This photo shows the remains of the two pit heads and the chimney on the right. See for example two views of the colliery at 36.2 and 42.78 for comparison. The Mountain Lane School has been built on the field in the foreground.

 

The colliery closed in 1929.
