EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Barnsley Main Colliery, located in the heart of South Yorkshire. The image showcases the remarkable survival of its engine house and pithead structures, which stand as a testament to the region's rich industrial heritage. Now listed as Grade II by Historic England, this aerial shot provides a unique perspective on the once-thriving coal mine. The composition beautifully juxtaposes nature and industry, with lush green fields surrounding the remnants of this disused colliery. Dave MacLeod skillfully captures both the grandeur and decay that coexist within these structures. The towering engine house stands tall against an expansive sky, while traces of coal dust still linger around its weathered walls. As we gaze upon this photograph, it is impossible not to feel a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era when mining was at its peak. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the countless lives shaped by this industry and pays homage to those who worked tirelessly underground.

This print invites us to reflect on our shared past while contemplating how far we have come since then – reminding us that progress often comes at great cost but leaves behind indelible marks on our landscape and collective memory.
