In this print titled "A miner walks home from Ellington Colliery in February 1994" we are transported back to the heart of the 1990s coal mining industry.

The photograph evokes a sense of resilience and determination that characterized the lives of these hardworking individuals. Despite facing countless challenges within their profession, they remained steadfast in their commitment to providing for their families and communities. Ellington Colliery, once a bustling hub of activity, served as both workplace and second home for these miners. Its presence looms large in the background, reminding us of the immense scale and importance of coal mining during this era. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded not only of the physical labor involved but also the deep camaraderie shared among miners. Their unity was forged through shared experiences underground, where danger lurked at every turn.
