Description: | A gin-pit showing the horse and gear in position. This is useful in describing how the horse was used to turn the winding gear that pulled the cage up and down the shaft. The gate at the entrance to the shaft (right of photograph) is there possibly for safety. Most of the pit gear appears to be wooden. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Dudley Archives | Rights holder: | Dudley Public Libraries | Subjects: | Coal mining | Temporal: | c1900 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
