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.
If you live
overseas and have any photo's please email them to me: baz @ gorslas.com
