Comments about this page
My grandfather, Robert Pickup, was a member of the rescue team at Town Bent colliery and was injured there, probably in the rescue work, during the fire of 1907. I suspect that he was invalided out of the pit at that time, but he did receive a commendation for his work in the team.
