PITFALL
This social history documentary brings together ex-miners to share their varied and telling experiences of life in the coal mines of Newcastle-under-Lyme, North Staffordshire. The area’s 20th Century economic and cultural landscape relied heavily on its 6 major pits which powered the local iron and pottery industries.
It powerfully captures their history and heritage through testimonies, stories, poems, images, documents and archive films, as well as expert contributions. It builds understanding and respect for both older people as former workers and members of the former mining community, and for the role that the mining industry played in the Newcastle-under-Lyme area. It was part of the “Mining the Past - Shaping Our Lives” project, developed by Age UK North Staffordshire and was
supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
