1900s Pit Village

After stopping for lunch in 1900s Town, we hopped on a tram to visit the 1900s pit village. This is what I was most interested in seeing. There were replicas of the houses that pit owners built for their workers right next to the mines, exactly as my ancestors would have lived in.

The school was really interesting. The building came from nearby Stanley, which is where my grandad was born. I'll have to do some more research to find out if it's the actual school he attended 😀.Okumaya devam et
