Markham Main Colliery, Armthorpe - A Glimpse into the Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of Markham Main Colliery in Armthorpe, near Doncaster, South Yorkshire back in 1961. The image showcases a general view of the colliery during its refurbishment work at that time. It serves as a poignant reminder of an era marked by both industrial progress and social unrest. The Battle of Markham Main, which unfolded during the Miners Strike in the early 1980s, left indelible scars on this once bustling coal mining site. Violent clashes between striking miners and police officers were witnessed here, symbolizing a period fraught with tension and conflict. However, as history often does, times changed and so did Markham Main Colliery. Following its closure in 1996, this hallowed ground underwent a remarkable transformation into a modern housing development. Today it stands as a testament to resilience and adaptability. Photographed by Michael Walters from Paul Walters Worldwide Photography Ltd. , this monochrome masterpiece freezes time for us to reflect upon the lives lived within these walls - hardworking men who dedicated themselves to extracting coal from deep underground. Their stories are etched forever within these frames. As we gaze upon this image today, let us remember not only their labor but also their struggles; for it is through understanding our past that we can shape our future with compassion and unity.
