Thanks so much for posting MuBu, Collieries that used to employ so many and worked for so long maybe 2, 3 or more generations of families working there, many suffering injuries or paying with their lives and besides precious videos like this to remember them, completely forgotten, your doing a great job well done. Shame about the American Adventure as well in a much differant sort of way.
We're currently putting a coal mining arts & cultural project together called 'Longwall, Landscape & Legacies: The Coal Mining Memorials of the East Midlands' of which the Heanor district is one of the five case studies. A digital tour will link the regions coal mining heritage to the arts, literature & tales of local coal mining folklore.
