I hear the local council and perhaps the villagers have voted to fetch that last headgear down...... it'd be a big mistake if they do.....and they will realise one day but quite probably way too late........In my area not a single head gear was left from a dozen or so big collieries and very few original buildings survive either..now the whole district is suppose to be a 'heritage' area for tourism etc but there's bugger all of the many many years worth of coal mining left to show anyone..........they're all whining and wishing that they'd saved something worth seeing now........ but its too damn late.
