EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of the coal mining industry in South Wales during the early 20th century, as depicted in this view of a jigger or coal screening machine at Llanerch Colliery near Pontypool. The jigger, a crucial piece of equipment in the coal mining process, was used to sort and classify coal based on size and quality. In the image, a miner, dressed in typical working attire including a boater hat and heavy work shirt, intently watches over the machine. Straw and coal litter the ground around him, a testament to the labor-intensive nature of the work. The industrial setting is further emphasized by the large, intricate machinery and the dark, enclosed space of the colliery. This photograph, taken in 1915, offers a glimpse into the past and the harsh realities of coal mining in Wales during this time period. The class divide is evident in the image, with the miner working in the coal mine while the machine, a symbol of industrial progress, stands tall and unyielding. The men who worked in these mines, such as the man in the photograph, were an integral part of the mining industry in South Wales, and their labor powered the country's industrial revolution. The jigger, with its complex machinery and intricate design, is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the mining industry during this time period. The image serves as a reminder of the rich history of coal mining in Wales and the important role it played in the country's industrial past.
