This picture shows the vent at the top of the main manriding shaft.
I worked as a Deputy /shotfirer with Thyssens who took the shaft from the New Hards Seanm to the Beeston, where we linked up with Caphouse, and then Bullcliffe Wood to join with the massive Wesrt side complex, all coal going out at the new Wooley Drift and washer. Happy Days!.
