old shaft
Yes that would be the one!Has it been filled in?My dad first worked at Hauxley pit and had to walk out to the seam under the sea!!Not a job for the faint hearted!Then he started at Shilbottle about 1949 and we moved up from Amble to a new house(Lee avenue).Great place as a child then,absolute freedom !Roam wherever you wanted and only go home when hungry!!
