Hi.
I was in my youth an apprentice with the NCB working at Berry hill colliery in the north staffs coal field. On a recent visit to my daughter in the hereford area i bought a set of bowles in a charity shop. attached was a lamphouse check for the Hendy Merthyr colliery number 84 stamped NCB. the name of the previous owner was Jim Jones. Anyone out there have any information about the mine,
