Hi Mike
Old Carlton (Wharncliffe Woodmoor 1,2 & 3) its official name
being Carlton Main. New Carlton were I worked had two shafts 4 & 5, only one
was used after the drift was driven the other one being used for
ventilation. In 1965 the pit hand filled faces and mechanized faces using
Shearer's and Panzer chain belts. Ponies at times worked between these
faces.
Hope this helps
Barry
