Newtongrange [Village]
View south from the village towards the National Mining Museum in October 2019. The type and location of company housing allocated to Lothian Coal Company employees was determined by rank within the pit. These slightly larger dwellings on the edge of the village would have been for overmen or lower management. Note the road sign for the museum and the elevated walkway alongside the main entrance. On the far right is the the remains of the western abutment of the bridge that brought coal from Easthouses and Lingerwood over the road into Lady Victoria.
