Acklington Colliery
I noticed a mention of Acklington pit and thought it might have been an error and really referred to Togston or Broomhill, but I don't think so. There is a Coal Houses on the North Broomhill to Acklington road, so perhaps there was a drift mine there? Maybe the airfield finished it off!
Coal Houses was also on ye olde map dated 1866.
