1980 from the West ...

That's a fair-sized section along the baulk with an angle-iron at the right hand end: John Boden is wondering about taking the barrow away. Joe Stone is on the right and I'm not sure who the person in the white hat is. Seeing the dumper truck sitting at the side of the cutting reminds me that sometimes, when the spoil heap was a long way from the cutting, we would hurl full barrow loads of spoil into the dumper bucket and then someone would drive the dumper up to, and up, the spoil heap.
