The way to work

This is the ganyway down which tens of workers would have walked every day to get to the coal staiths for a long and danger day of work loading the ships with coal to head out to sea but now they lay abandoned as the mining industry in the area has all but vanished. The top level you see was where the coal trains would pull in before the workers would unload the coal into the blue shuttles you see in the centre of shot, which would run it down into the belly of the ship.

The way to work belongs to the following groups:
