As a born and bred Murtonian, this video really brings back great memories. I am so pleased that there are images of the metal cage that straddled the road entering Murton. I remember the amount of coal that had fallen into the mesh. That structure saved a lot of damage to cars and pedestrians alike....great job mate.
Anyone interested watch on Google.. A world of my own. Emmanuelle shinwell. Shot in 1969 starts in woods terrace.. Then tbrough cold Hesleden into easington.. Lovely video.
Nice job Michael, thanks for this video. I can remember going past Murton colliery on my way to work each day.

And it provided a better ride than Blackpool could ever produce for the lads that lived in Dene Terrace.
