Graham Pirt:
The Last Shift

If you think you know mining history - think again! Graham Pirt's multi-media show delves into the fascinating social, practical and political legacy of coal mining in the UK, from its roots in the 13th century to the demise of the industry in the late 20th century. Meticulously researched, with compelling stories and songs, The Last Shift is a fantastic launch to our series of events across the weekend commemorating mining culture.
