My mum grew up there. In the 50s & 60s.
Must've been interesting times. The town looks like everybody just walked out. Have you ever been out there and is your mums house in the video?

Car battery power, wood floor now 🤳 √
Yes, we had no electricity for the first 6 years of my life, water hand pumped from a well, wood heating and cooking and bitter cold winters ....
