Moorfield Colliery Memorial
This memorial, at the side of Burnley Road is dedicated to the 68 men and boys who tragically lost their lives in the Moorfield Colliery Disaster of 1883. The sinking of the Moorfield Pit was completed in July 1881 and the colliery (originally called Altham Colliery) stood at this site until closure in the 1960s when it was closed and the area became an industrial estate.
