Description: | Crooked houses and a pitted road at an unknown street location at The Delph, Brierley Hill. The crooked line of the houses on the left hand side of the street clearly shows substantial mining subsidence. Some of the buildings closest to the viewer appear to have either fallen down through subsidence, or been purposely pulled down for safety. It appears that an attempt has been made to stop the building on the extreme right from falling down by propping it up with wooden planks. The photograph was taken in Turner's Lane, The Delph. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Dudley Archives | Rights holder: | Newsgroup, Stourbridge (Stourbridge News). | Subjects: | Coal mining | Temporal: | 1913 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
