Re: Huncoat Colliery
 

My mum told me about a disaster at that mine but I presumed she meant during the time my dad worked there, and hence why he left. Your info Bob means this occured after dad had left.
The information I used to be told by my mum was sketchy, at best, and this is probably why I never took any interest until now.

Thanks again.

Mike
