Hi everyone, I'm not a general mining enthusiast but am interested in the Hall O'Lee Colliery near Kidsgrove/Church Lawton through other historical research I am carrying out on the person who set up this mine in 1792. Is there anyone else out there, including ICLOK who has posted photos of a visit in 2012, who has further knowledge about this colliery or is interested in information I have gathered about it.
I'd be glad to hear from you.

You are welcome to pop round to my house if you're anywhere near Newcastle or we could meet maybe at Apedale museum.
The map is quite big, about 4ft square so if you want a copy it would probably be best to photograph it.

Thanks Jez. I am going abroad on Tuesday until 6th October. I'll contact you to arrange when I return.
