This image show the vale view site in 1913 when it was the Haunchwood no2 clay pit - the clay was taken via a tunnel under the railway line and into the works grinding mill which was opposite the no1 clay pit which is now a pool.
The brick yard chimneys are on the right and the chimneys of Haunchwood Nowells colliery are on the left. Behind the camera Is the apex position of the Haunchwood road. Not a simple site to build on but foundations for light weight steel stands and a new single story club house.
