ARTIFACTS

The Trust has built up a unique collection of 19-20th century mining artifacts and we display these at various sites throughout Shropshire.   Some of the items are currently stored in the yard of T.O.Tomlins Ltd of Halfway House, who have kindly offered us facilities to store and work on them.  Other items have been taken to Snailbeach Mine, Tankerville Mine, Bersham Colliery and Severn Valley Country Park.  

Anyone who would like to help in preserving these artifacts and getting them running again will be very welcome at working meets. Arrangements can also be made for access at other times. The pictures below are an example of a few of the items we possess, click on the thumbnail to see a larger picture :-
