Following on from a large amount of recent interest there is an intention to set up the South Gloucester Mines Research Group. It is hoped this will be much the same format as some of the longer established groups in shropshire Peak district north yorkshire etc. i.e. raise public awareness, record and investigate remains & records, preservation where appropriate etc.
A newsletter has been prepared and the inaugural meeting has been set for
Thursday 3rd Oct 2002 at 7.30pm Miners Institute Coalpit Heath
There is also going to be another openday at Rangeworthy (Oldwood) Colliery
Saturday 14th September 2002 11.00am - 5.00pm
If anyone is interested contact me (David Hardwick [log in to unmask] or 01454 413248)
Please circulate this to anyone off list who might be interested
regards
David Hardwick
