Coal Mine
Can someone give me the history of coal mining subsidence has caused the collapse of the mountain at Blaina?
Between 1974 and 1989, the mountain at Bournville, Blaina, Abertillery, Gwent collapsed inward due to the collapse of operation old mine causing a landslide, with everyone being evacuated from their homes. Subsequently, the school houses and several were pulled down with the council to buy the rest of the houses and residents given alternative accommodation. This was later rectified by the mountain being stabalised, which cost millions, with people returning back to Bournville, although several properties have been demolished. That's it I know! I would like a fuller explanation of events, dates, etc., if anyone out there can let me know. I now live in Bournville and I would satisfy my own curiosity.
Good luck with that Im trying to find information on a mining accident in 1911 not to have a little chance
