  • A Short History of Coal Mining in Wigan and Leigh by Mining Historian Ian
    A short history of coal mining in Wigan and Leigh by Mining Historian Ian Winstanley on behalf of the Carbon Landscape partnership Wigan is built on coal. There is evidence that the Romans dug coal in the area where it outcropped but the first written record of coal in the area comes from court records in 1246 when there is a case of ‘Adam de Radcliffe stole coal belonging to Adam son of Alexander.’ Most pits were small and shallow and Wigan was noted for its Canel Coal which families could access from their land. John Ireland visited Haigh in 1583 and observed, ‘Mr. Bradshaw had found much canel or sea coal that was profitable to him.’ The work in the pits was seasonable and shared with some weaving and agricultural work on the green and pleasant land It is thought that the first pit in the town was sunk by Peter Plat, a chandler of Millgate in1619. The shaft was exposed when the foundations for Wigan and District Mining and Technical College were being prepared in 1863 and workings were exposed by excavations for the new swimming baths in 1964. Records of pits working in Wigan are recorded in the 1770’s and coal dynasties were emerging, the Bradshaws and subsequently the Earls of Crawford and Balcarres of Haigh Hall saw the potential of the rich seams that lay under their lands. Shafts were sunk and the coal worked. The depth and extent of the workings was dependent on water being taken away and fresh air getting into the workings, major factors in deep mining, drainage and ventilation.

  • Historic Environment Strategy September 2020
    Historic Environment Strategy September 2020 WiganCouncilOnline wigancouncil @wigancouncil wigan.gov.uk 2 Wigan Borough Historic Environment Strategy My role as Heritage Champion allows me the privilege of working with our communities and stakeholders to protect and conserve all aspects of our historic environment. The consultation on this draft Historic Environment Strategy is a fantastic opportunity for us all to think about the things that make our borough special and get involved in protecting and conserving them. It is not just about fine architecture and grand buildings; it is much more than that, especially in towns like ours were we should cherish our local designs constructed of terracotta, brick and stone and the ancient street patterns that still exist, so we can, were possible, maintain the vistas and views of our town centres and distinct communities we live in that make them special to each one of us. Indeed our shared history is told through the historic environment, it has shaped our personal experiences and it will continue to shape our future. This strategy celebrates the borough’s historic environment and the recognises the considerable economic, social and environmental benefits it generates. However, it also acknowledges the challenges we face, not least securing investment and finding new financially viable uses for buildings. We must work together across all sectors to find creative and meaningful solutions – not seek to preserve the world as it was 100 years ago - but encourage sensitive adaptation and advocate pragmatic conservation. Councillor Terrance Halliwell We intend this strategy to raise awareness of our fantastic historic environment, Wigan Council, Heritage Champion promote good management and inform our priorities for action.

  • Francis Edmond C.B.E
    Francis Edmond C.B.E. 1881 – 1966 A Career in Coal 64 Bon Accord Street, Aberdeen A young Frank Edmond photographed before he left Aberdeen. Francis Edmond CBE – a brief biographical sketch. On Friday, 18th December 2015, the last deep coal mine in the UK, at Kellingley in Yorkshire, was closed. This once proud industry had suffered from political interference, had been undermined (no pun intended) by wanton, politically-motivated, union vandalism, battered by the unrealistic demands of misguided environmentalists, and finally broken by a global economy that enabled foreign imports of coal to be burned far more cheaply that that hewn out of the ground at mines here in the UK. None could have been more proud of the industry he served than my grandfather, Francis Edmond, who was always known as Frank, and none would have be more dismayed by what has affected the industry since 1984, although I’ve no doubt he would have taken some small pleasure from the subsequent turn of events in Nottinghamshire. Frank was born on the 14 th of September 1881 at the family home, 64 Bon Accord Street, in Aberdeen, Scotland. He was the sixth child of John Philip Edmond and his wife, Barbara Janet Sinclair, and was their second son. Eventually the family would grow to be eleven children, but only Frank and three of his sisters would reach old age, such was the scourge of tuberculosis. J.P.Edmond was initially in partnership with his father, John Edmond, running the family bookbinding and publishing business in Queen Street, Aberdeen.

  • Character Type 5 Degraded and Restored Landscapes
    CHARACTER TYPE 5 DEGRADED AND RESTORED LANDSCAPES Description For the purpose of the study, degraded and restored landscape is defined as land which has been altered from its former state by mining, extraction and industrial uses and/or restored to a condition other than for viable agricultural use. Degraded and restored landscapes relate directly to their original cause or source such as the colliery, quarry or industrial area responsible. They are found throughout the Makerfield Basin from Goose Green to the north-west to Astley Green Colliery to the south-east. Together these landscapes provide potential for wildlife and recreational open space within densely developed industrial and residential areas. They remain a legacy to the area’s industrial past, providing a variety of landforms, and often create good views over the surrounding area. Photo. 115 Bickershaw Colliery near Fir Tree Flash. Character Type 5 – Degraded and Wigan Council LCA Restored Landscapes 202 Excluded from this landscape character type are colliery spoil mounds, which have been reclaimed, topsoiled, grassed and now returned to a viable agricultural use e.g. at Tamer Lane End, Bickershaw and adjacent to Cleworth Hall, Tyldesley. Also excluded are areas of former open cast works where ‘panels’ of extraction have taken place between retained hedgerows and the land once again returned to grazing or arable use e.g. to the south of the A580 at Astley and the recently restored farmland to the west of the M6, adjacent to Rycroft Farm/Ashton Road. These areas are now sufficiently well-restored to be considered as contiguous with adjacent agricultural landscape types, with only the landform indicating that the original ground levels have been significantly altered.
