ITEMS of INTEREST.

If you have  any items that are of interest please contact me.

Can you help?

Still under construction Please come back.

 I require more photographs.

Local village photo's and local history, old documents.

Coal mining Pictures of all local pit's, slag heaps and all.

If you have anything that you think may be of use please contact me.

I have reproduced some old photo's that people have given or loaned me, but I need more. 
These old photo's have had  modern day photo's taken from the same position 
(as far as possible, we hope)  next to them.

If you have any photo's please bring them to Black Lion Caravan & Camping Park, or contact me and I will collect them. 

No damage will be done to the photo's and they will give a lot of pleasure to local people and Gorslas ex-pats world wide.
