Can you give a rough date for the photo taken of the pair of cottages at the railway sidings in pic 1? Doing some research into the history of them before they were converted into one house. I was told they were originally miner's cottages.

its guess the train in the background is a diesel engine train , Peter Birchill took the photo when I see him again I will ask him , my guess is early 70s we still ,had lots of steam trains through the 60s

Thanks very much! If you or Peter know anything more about the houses and their history, would love to hear.
