EDITORS COMMENTS
October 1920: A poignant moment of respite amidst the turmoil of the mining strike. In this evocative photograph, a group of pit lasses and pit boys gather together, deep in conversation, seemingly without misgivings, as they prepare to cease their work at the Pitscolliery. The women, dressed in their traditional shawls and headscarves, huddle close, their faces etched with the lines of hardship and determination. The boys, clad in grubby work clothes, listen intently, their expressions thoughtful and serious. The ballot for strike action had been a contentious issue, with many fearing the financial and social consequences of an extended work stoppage. Yet, here, in this moment, there is a sense of unity and solidarity, a shared understanding that their collective action is necessary. The photograph captures the spirit of the era, a time of industrial unrest and social change, when the working class rose up to demand better wages, working conditions, and respect. This poignant image serves as a reminder of the resilience and determination of the miners and their families during the 1920s mining strikes.
