Wirral Colliery Co

Wirral Colliery Co
The coal mining industry on the Wirral has a long history with extensive workings stretching under the Dee estuary towards North Wales. This last colliery closed in July 1928 and this view from the 1930s shows the site of the Wirral Colliery soon after the shafts had been walled up in brick for safety. The main winding shaft in later years was that on the furthest right.
