All That Remains...
S0uth Yorkshire was once home to a great number of collieries.
Only one mine is left working (Hatfield) although that too is currently threatened with closure.
Abandoned mine sites are often commemorated with a winding wheel from the pit head and a name plate.
This particular one shows the opening and closing dates with the name. There is also a small plaque with a very brief history - enlarged here to include in the picture.
