Miners' memorial, Markham
The appearance of this memorial belies the date of its unveiling which was September 2009.
It is in memory of all who those who worked and all those who died in the Markham Colliery 1912 to 1985 and some former miners attended the unveiling.
An explosion in a shaft of the mine in 1912, just a year after it opened, caused the death of six miners. Four miners were awarded The Edward Medal http://sites.google.com/site/minesrescuehistory/gallantry-awards/the-edward-medal .
