These became a characteristic of coalfields in the north east during the nineteenth century. | Subjects: | Vertical Steam Engine Machinery Industry | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Skingle, B | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
