Sutton Manor Colliery DVD and Book
21 June 2007 Category: Sutton Manor Woodland, St.Helens
Sutton Manor Primary have announced that they will be launching a DVD and book on Sutton Manor Colliery on Thursday June 28th. Last year the pupils made an application to the Heritage Lottery Fund and were awarded £34,000. For the last nine months the girls and boys of the Forest Road school have been very busy recording the social history of the colliery which closed in 1991. Presumably the fruits of their labours will be available in Wardleworths, WH Smiths et all on the 28th for us all to enjoy.
Incidentally Sutton Beauty has just added a dedicated page devoted to the Sutton Manor Colliery which includes a 23 picture photo album.
