EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the once-thriving collieries of Langwith, Norwood, and Glapwell in North Derbyshire. Printed by Pawson and Brailsford, it serves as a poignant reminder of the coal industry's significant presence in this region. Gazing at this image, one can't help but be transported back to an era when these collieries were bustling with activity. These industrial landscapes were once teeming with hardworking miners who dedicated their lives to extracting coal from deep within the earth. The closure of Glapwell Colliery near Chesterfield in the early 1970s marked a turning point for this community. The echoes of its final days still resonate through time, reminding us of the impact that such closures had on countless families. Similarly, Norwood Colliery near Killamarsh met its fate much earlier in 1943. Its closure left behind a void that was felt not only economically but also emotionally by those whose livelihoods depended on it. Lastly, Langwith Colliery near Whaley Thorns ceased operations in August 1978. This event marked the end of an era for yet another mining community and brought about profound changes to their way of life. Through engravings like this one preserved by Sheffield City Archives, we are granted a glimpse into our industrial past—a testament to both human resilience and the transformative power of progress. Let us remember these collieries as symbols not just of coal and industry but also as
