This is our local monument to the miners,we had six pits in our little village and they provided a very large portion of the inhabitants with work.It was a very dangerous job and many lives were lost,but the miners were a close knit bunch of men,who looked out for each other underground.When they closed the pits many men were out of work,some never worked again as they were nearing the end of their working lives.My father,brother and most of the males in my family were miners,the mines are gone,but the miners will never be forgotten x
