UK Coal Lodge House Extension

[L.Kezz]

Hi all, went down to smalley to take a look to see if there was any action at Lodge House and luckily enough there was, looks like the extension to the site has been up and running for a good couple of weeks or so now, here are some pics freshly took on Tuesday morning of them stripping the extension, they had a bit of allsop's and wardles plant.

I can advise you of a possibly closer vantage point Joe - I work on the Industrial Estate next to Shipley Park.

We no the way to go now Ian! It's all overgrown footpaths to get to it though lol

Which road do I need to start off from? haha

[L.Kezz]

Well pete of the main road through smalley you go down old pit lane, follow the path round and you will cross the site entrance road, go over a style and they will be there working on your right.
