Default Pit Heap at Tin Pots

Used to live in Stone Row in Broomhill, before moving to hadston estate, had to walk or run past the Tin Pots to get to Broomhill Junior School. As kids we used to climb up the pit heap and used to see smoke coming from it, it smelt like rotten eggs. The locals used to build a bonfire for guy fawks, and some gang of young boys, (from hadston) used to set it on fire before November the 5th.
