Colliery spoil heap at Butterknowle
Butterknowle is a County Durham 'pit village'. Little evidence now remains of the coal mining industry but the image shows a shaley spoil heap above the east side of Crow Howle Beck, north of the settlement. There's also a small, brick-built ruin at the camera location.
