Miners leave the pit at the end of the shift

Out of the dark interior of the pithead building, past a stair and heavy timbers, miners in caps and black work clothes walk into the paved yard, lamps hanging from their hands; the man in the middle looks toward the camera as he passes. The source describes exterior views of the miners leaving the pit and a father and son who leave the group and pause.
