Loomis, that must be the one. Until 2 years ago, the last time I went there was 1962!!! The house in Grammer Street is still there, back then, the house overlooked fields and the pit, with the Common over the road on the right, I am sure there was a chapel on the right too, so it must be. There was a lake at the pit head (as most had)with lots of ducks and swans !!!!
If anyone else has any memories that link, know of any surviving relatives of the Browns, or anything else, I would be grateful. Thanks for that, Sue
