AN INDEX TO THE NEWSLETTERS : Nos.1 to 53 (April 1980 to Winter 2005)

Introduction This index has been compiled primarily as an aid to researching sites, although a very slight cover of other subject areas has also been made. I have listed sites under ‘traditional’ rather than current counties & hope to add parishes for all sites, mainly as shown on the provisional 1:25,000 OS map (ca 1950). There may be errors & omissions – any contributions would be gratefully received so the index can be updated. It is also hoped to incorporate this into an index covering the publications of other mining & caving organisations. Alasdair Neill The index is split into a county by county listing, (running geographically from the south west to the north east) with Welsh counties listed first, then the UK, followed by the rest of the world ! It is the first comprehensive index to be issued by the Welsh Mines Society to enable better access to the growing wealth of information on Welsh mines and mining as previously published in their twice yearly Newsletter. The compilation of this index was carried out by Mr Alasdair Neill, to whom we owe our thanks. Subsequent ‘typesetting’ has been completed by myself. Michael P. Munro – February 2006

The Welsh Mines Society The Welsh Mines Society was formed in 1979 by David Bick, with the aim of promoting interest in the research, preservation and exploration of mining heritage in Wales. Sadly David passed away in early 2006, but the society continues to prosper, with two Newsletters, two weekend field meets, and a one day social gathering, each year.

The Welsh Mines Society offer the following levels of membership (2006 rates) Annual Newsletter only subscription £4.00 Annual Membership including newsletter and overground insurance £9.00 Annual Membership including newsletter and underground insurance £19.00 If you are insured with another BCA club (overground or underground) then you only need to subscribe to the Newsletter, and you will be adequately covered when with the WMS .on field meets. If you are not insured with another BCA club you must become a fully paid-up member of the WMS if you intend to attend a WMS field trip meeting (unless it’s an indoor social meet held by the Society) – otherwise you are putting other members and the Society’s officers at risk. Please request a membership form from the Treasurer, David Roe, or download one from the WMS website, address / URL below.
