Cadley Hill and Bretby Collieries Report
Some of you may remember that, in what seems the dim and
distant past (early last year?) I said that my student-days report
(1950) on the former Cadley Hill and Bretby Collieries in South
Derbyshire, which is now lodged with the Derbyshire County
archivist in Matlock, was to be produced by them in printed form.
After letters of apology for the delay, both last July and again in
November, I am now told that this report has at last been printed.
I am to get one complimentary copy (which I have yet to see),
but copies of the report are on sale, details as follows:
Cadley Hill and Bretby Collieries Report, 1950

Price £3.50, including postage (presumably in UK only)
Cheques payable to Derbyshire County Council, sent to
Derbyshire Record Office,

If anyone has any queries about obtaining the report, may
I suggest they be directed to the County Archivist, Dr Margaret
O'Sullivan (snail mail address as above), e-mail address
[log in to unmask]
Any queries re the content of the report should come to me.
