Have you tried the appropriate County Record Office / Archive? They would seem to the most likely place and might be able to suggest other sources if they don't have anything on the mine. There could be somewhere like a University that holds material on mining. You can also trying search on A2A to see if you get any matches. MB

Is there perhaps a way of getting info through the GCR? Or have you been down that route already? Reg
