Welldone & wellspotted MrsB !,

I spent an hour yesterday trying to find him, thought I'd be "clever" by looking up his PRs to find he seemed to be in the Ruspidge area then went thro all the Ruspidge/Cinderford area pits with no luck. I wondered if he was an ironminer ( eg Shakemantle or Buckshaft) hence not included on the Lightmoor Coal site ?. Thatsaid, they were too big to be owned by James, I guess, think they were Crawshay's ?

Pray tell, PLEASE say you also applied science or did you just get lucky with the first in the A-Z ?!

Either way, again, well done.
