Horses and Handlers, Loftus Mine

An early photograph of the stables at the mine at Loftus dating from about 1875, taken before the horses and the men walked down into the mine to work their shift. Although of poor quality the Archive hopes in time to be able to replace with a better copy of this photograph.

    This the mine adjacent to Horse Muck Terrace in Skinningrove; I used to walk to Skinningrove from Liverton Mines to visit my Aunt; Ada Kennedy.
