Two miners stand tall against a backdrop of towering buildings, their gazes fixed upon the new winding tower that symbolizes progress and hope for the coal industry. The pithead at Killoch Colliery was established during the 1950s and became an integral part of Scotland's industrial landscape. Despite its closure in 1987, this site continued to play a vital role as a hub for coal distribution. The image serves as a poignant reminder of an era when coal mining was not only an occupation but also a way of life for many hardworking Scots. The monochrome composition adds depth and intensity to the scene while highlighting every detail on these brave men's faces.
