The drift in question behind the Moorhouse farm was the Moorhouse drift, part of the North side of Broomhill colliery which was working the Radcliffe and Albert seams in that area until the closure of the North side in late 1959.

The drift at Radcliffe was just behind the house where I grew up. I remember that we were allowed to go into the building and even walk a little way down the tunnel. The air seemed very stale. I also remember the ponies.

Would both these drifts be operational at the same time?
