Could be miners at the bottom of a colliery heapstead somewhere. No photographer's name visible from the front. I'm tempted to open it to see if there is anything on the back.

I'm not familiar with that type of lamp the guys have. small square metal frame, I assume with glass in it. Probably held a candle.

If it is a pit it's probably one of the myriad in the blyth / wansbeck area. But you never know could be one from our neck of the woods.
