About the event

PRETORIA RUINS LECTURE TOUR with Alan Davies
Pretoria Ruins Lecture Tour with mining historian Alan Davies
On December 21st 1910, just four days before Christmas, an underground explosion at the Hulton Colliery took the lives of 344 local men and boys. It became known as the Pretoria Disaster and it remains to this day the third largest UK mining tragedy. Mr Davies gives us a full and detailed account of the cause, event and aftermath and we walk into the woods to see the still visible ruins. The event lasts two hours and stout footwear is essential. The charge is £4 per adult, under 14s £3. Places must be booked. Email aiAhIGJ1bGxlbjEgfCBudGx3b3JsZCAhIGNvbQ==
