Coal Mining in Leicestershire
Keeping Coal Alive
We now have a plaque that has been placed on the National Miners Memoral dedicated to all of the men, women and children who worked at Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Warwickshire Collieries.
​
South Midlands Heritage wants to spread our message of keeping Midlands Coal Mining heritage alive through pictures, words and exhibitions to learn from our past by talking about this in the present, so we can move forward and be inspired for our future.
We believe in communities of the Midlands learning about what Coal was and how it shaped our history.
