As we all know St Helens as been a none mining area since15th/16th centuary. But can any body tell me how many seams of workable/salable coal and there names ( none to local miners ) pluss how thick the seams were? I know a few as I served an electical apprenticeship and was employed as an electrician at Bold Colliery in the sixties. Such as Yard Mine,Higher and lower Florida,Rushy Park,Trencheborn ect. :thankyou:
