Abstract/Summary

Two tramroads of the early nineteenth century were examined. A 380 yard-long tramway tunnel, constructed in 1832, which served the early coal pits of North Staffordshire, was re-excavated and entered for the first time in, probably, 120 years. No records are known to exist and no previous field research is known. This paper presents a record of features and artefacts found.
