The Flockton Thin seam has a thickness of 34 inches, which includes a three inch dirt band. In good age related used condition. The response of witness to persistent questioning about this unpleasant smell in the district appeared to be inconsistent and this may have been because of the stress placed on identifying it with the smell of rotten eggs. Someone less accustomed to such minor variations may well have been disturbed or possibly perplexed, as was the case with Oliver who had only recently taken over responsibility for the district. The face lay about 220 yards below the surface and two seams were worked above it 120 to 130 years before. What I want to say is that geological maps and sections are designed to show geology, and mining data which goes on to maps and sections in general are put there to illustrate the geology, so that the geological map is not a precise catalogue of mining. The Silkstone shaft had winding equipment but there were no winding facilities at the Beeston shaft. Oldroyd then tried to ride out on the gate belt conveyer but this had stopped almost immediately so he jumped off and ran. Both men agreed under examination, however, that there was another possible interpretation. The Silkstone seam was about 80 yards below the Flockton Thin and was worked around 1914. 120 feet intervals at right angles to the gate and inclined at 45 degrees over the waste. As part of the rescue operation auxiliary ventilation, a power supply and pumping equipment had been installed in the old South 9 and South 9A main gates to remove water and restore a ventilation circuit as far as the air crossing at South 9B tail gate. Methane drainage was installed from the tail gate with holes 120 feet long spaced at No record other than an entry in the libraries visitors’ book would be made. Variations in the level of water table caused by the weather can have a considerable effect on the fill material, and in time, wooden platforms rot away. Very little water was pumped from the mine. The location of the 9B district is in the Flockton Thin seam to the west of South 4 loader gate. He made his way immediately to the tail gate with water at conveyor height, about seven inches, flowing alongside him. On March 21 1973 miners at Lofthouse, West Yorkshire Colliery were working at a coal face which unknown to them was close to some 19th century mine workings which had become flooded. Although the water level was within 14 inches of the roof at the out bye end, he found conditions improved in bye. Later the under managers duties for south 9B district were similarly transferred to Oliver, who believed that he was statutorily appointed under manager, and accepted all the duties and responsibilities implicit in such an appointment. Hardcore, baled straw and clay were used to obtain a water tight seal near the bottom and filling to the surface was completed with hardcore. Easington Colliery Disaster(report). The main make at Lofthouse A and B) shafts is from the old Haigh Moor workings and is between 160 and 230 gallons per minute dependent on the season. (b)  of taking such steps as may be necessary for the purpose of sub standing any such information which comes into his procession (whether in consequence of the discharge of the duty imposed upon him by the foregoing paragraph or not). On 18 April both gates were inspected in fresh air by HM Inspectors Mapplebeck, the Manager, and P Wood, the surveyor, accompanied by a National Coal Board photographer. Mapplebeck, in evidence, spoke of the violence of the inrush and stated that water was still seeping through the debris which blocked both road ways at the time of the inspection. At 11.33am the Ledston Luck Colliery rescue team carried out an exploration and after some difficulty at the transfer point traveled 490 yards beyond it. The summary report was a bald and restricted statement in which no attempt was made to present documents investigated by the surveyors. These plans showed old workings in Gawthorpe and Haigh Moor seams in the Low Laithes area and also the location of some of the old shafts from which these seams had been worked during the 19th Century. Cadder Colliery Disaster. OK. At about 2am the trepanner, which had cut to powered support no 60, approximately 70 yards from the main gate, was stopped together with the face conveyor because large stones were being broken at the main gate roundhead. Although there was a small fault on the face, 80 yards from the main gate and weighted breaks were evident from time to time, the roof was well controlled by five legged powered supports. Although there was a small fault on the face 80 yards from the main gate and weight breaks were evident from time to time the roof was well controlled by the five legged powered supports. On 28th March at about 10.00am A Rollinson, an assistant superintendent at the rescue station at Doncaster, made an assessment of the possibility of exploring along the intake gate in bye the slit junction. At the north Yorkshire Area headquarters of the National Coal Board there was a journal of Sinkings and Borings, collected by Joseph Tolson White, a mining engineer well known in Wakefield in the 19th century. After an assessment of the situation it was decided to install pumps in the 1 in 6 drift to lower the water level and regain access to the district.
