EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the image of an elderly widow from Hook Colliery, a former mining community located near Haverfordwest in Pembrokeshire, South Wales. Dressed in traditional Edwardian attire, the woman is seen walking along a narrow lane with the aid of a worn wooden stick, her gnarled hands clutched tightly around its handle. In her other hand, she carries a tin tray, its edges worn from years of use. The scene is set against the backdrop of a rural Welsh landscape, with lush green foliage and a clear blue sky. The woman's shawl, wrapped around her shoulders, provides a hint of warmth against the chill of the autumn air. Her hat, adorned with a ribbon and feather, sits atop her graying hair, framing her weathered face. The image speaks to the hardships and resilience of the women who lived in mining communities during the early 20th century. The year was 1906, and the mining industry was a significant part of the local economy in Pembrokeshire. The closure of Hook Colliery, like many others, had a profound impact on the community, leaving many families, including this widow, to fend for themselves. Despite the challenges, the women of these communities continued to persevere, carrying on with their daily routines and finding ways to make ends meet. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history and traditions of the mining communities in Wales, and the strength and resilience of the women who lived there. It invites us to reflect on the past and to honor the stories of those who came before us.
