EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Dave MacLeod showcases the remnants of Ironstone mining in Tankersley Park, Barnsley. The image captures the striking shaft mounds that stand as a testament to the area's rich industrial history. Dating back to 2015 and taken from an aerial perspective, this photograph offers a unique view of the golf course intertwined with these towering structures. The ironstone mining industry played a significant role in shaping Barnsley's landscape and economy. These shaft mounds were once bustling centers of extraction, where workers tirelessly dug deep into the earth to extract valuable minerals. Today, they serve as poignant reminders of a bygone era. MacLeod's expert composition highlights both the natural beauty of Tankersley Park and its juxtaposition with man-made structures. The lush greenery surrounding these imposing mounds creates an intriguing contrast, symbolizing nature's resilience amidst human intervention. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how communities relied on such industries for their livelihoods. It serves as a reminder of our collective heritage and encourages us to reflect on how far society has come since those days. Dave MacLeod skillfully captures not only the physical remnants but also evokes emotions associated with this historical site through his lens. This photograph is undoubtedly an invaluable addition to Historic England's collection, preserving memories for generations to come.
