Summary

There have been many miners killed across the UK, in a series of terrible accidents in an industry that has always been known as dangerous. But when we think of coal mining disasters they tend to be in the 18th and 19th centuries, including the worst mining disaster in UK history which killed 439 men and boys working in Senghenydd, Glamorgan in 1913 as a result of a gas explosion.

The story today is from the 21st century, but is again from South Wales and once again, it destroyed many lives.
