Image of Miners at a pityard

YKSMM: 2004.1869

A black and white image showing four miners (Will Humphries, I. Owen, A. Greenway, T. Harris) and Mr. Lambert discussing dirty coal, possibly at Silkstone. This image was taken for Coal Magazine.

Harold White was commissioned by the NCB to photograph coal mines and their mining communities across Great Britain between 1950 and 1960. These images were donated by the late photographer’s daughter. The collection includes images from England, Scotland and Wales as it was thought that such an important collection should remain together.
