EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of coal mining in Lancashire, England. Taken at Bank Hall Training Centre in Burnley in 1956, it shows trainee miners being familiarised with fire fighting equipment as part of their safety training. The young men are seen attentively learning how to handle the tools that could potentially save lives deep underground.
The image is a poignant reminder of the dangerous conditions faced by coal miners during this era, and the importance of proper training and safety measures. It also highlights the vital role that institutions like Bank Hall Training Centre played in preparing new recruits for the challenges of working in the industry.
The black-and-white composition adds a sense of timelessness to the scene, transporting viewers back to a bygone era when coal mining was at its peak in Lancashire. The expressions on the faces of these trainee miners convey both determination and apprehension as they absorb crucial knowledge that could one day mean the difference between life and death.
Overall, this print serves as a powerful tribute to those who worked tirelessly underground, often risking their own well-being to fuel industrial operations. It stands as a testament to their resilience and dedication to an industry that shaped communities and economies for generations.
