My father worked in the Lime Kiln from around 1954/5 to 1960 when died of a heart attach. What date are those photos?

I don’t know but my granddad Jack Bradley is in one of them. He retired from the pit aged 72. My father Louis (“Geordie”) Gardiner worked there too on the kilns and latterly in the hydrating plant alongside Sol Wyman and Les Neal. They all retired around the same time in the mid eighties. The hydrating plant was closed and demolished almost immediately.
