The Coal Mines of Buxton

It’s another for the diary.

The Coal Mines of Buxton, not a place I would associate with heavy industry apart from the quarry.

So if you are  in the Furness Vale area why not find out.

I am a great fan of history groups, and Furness Vale is a good one.  It is easy to get with a direct train from Manchester to the station with the community centre around the corner.

And if that is not possible just look them up at http://furnesshistory.blogspot.co.uk/
