Have you tried Beamish? They have some fairly extensive local photo collections.

Thanks Craklyn

Yes I have. The photo I posted above is from the Beamish collection that is online. I intend to visit in Person and just maybe they have some close up photos.  I am hoping that someone may have a photo, maybe of the QE2 Coronation street party, that shows details of the row. Houses, people etc. I have been on this for several months and the Pit Rows seem like a lost planet.
