General Maps
In this section we have a number of maps that show the collieries and pits in the region at various times. All of the maps are linked to the colliery detail pages so that when you are viewing the detail of a particular map you can click on the colliery to see the detailed information we have for that colliery. Please note that not all of the collieries and pits shown on the maps have active links - we are gradually adding these.
You may find this a better method of locating collieries in a particular locality for the selected time period.
