This print captures a significant moment in the history of the Coleshill Coal preparation plant, located in North Warwickshire, England. Taken on July 26th, 1962, it showcases the installation of absorption towers that played a crucial role in the coal industry during this era. The image portrays an industrial scene with towering cranes dominating the exterior landscape. These massive machines are seen delicately maneuvering and positioning the absorption towers into place against a backdrop of clear skies. The monochrome effect adds depth and intensity to every detail captured by photographer Michael Walters. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, we are transported back to a time when coal mining was at its peak.
