On Adrian Pearce's Mining History Database, you will find a fairly full copy of the list of mines as it relates to the Wyre Forest Coalfield (www.aston.ac.uk/~poynerdr/fowcoal.htm) from 1854 to 1950. Not much help if you aren't interested in the Wyre Forest Coalfield I know but it is a start! David Poyner. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
