Todmorden Moor

The rich moor at Todmorden, to the west of the town, was exploited for coal, clay and sandstone - a brief history can be viewed here.

Todmorden Moor Restoration Trust are heading up the survey and historical study of the mineral extraction evidence on Todmorden Moor. Evidence will be drawn together from aerial photography, fieldwalking, and documentary, photographic and oral history sources.
