EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic Hook Colliery in Pembrokeshire, South Wales, during the Victorian-Edwardian era. The image, taken around the turn of the 20th century, showcases the wooden headframe that once dominated the landscape near Haverfordwest. The intricate timber structure, a testament to the ingenuity and hard work of the miners, stands tall against the backdrop of the Welsh countryside. The Hook Colliery, with its rich coal seams, played a significant role in the industrial history of Pembrokeshire. Coal mining was a vital industry in the region, providing employment opportunities for many local residents. The wooden headframe in the photograph is a symbol of the area's mining heritage, representing the dedication and resilience of the community. The use of wood for the headframe was a common practice during this period due to its availability and affordability. The wooden structure allowed for the controlled lowering and raising of mining equipment, ensuring the safety of the miners below. The intricate details of the headframe, visible in the photograph, demonstrate the craftsmanship and precision required to build and maintain such structures. As we gaze upon this historical image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the rich industrial heritage of Pembrokeshire and the vital role that coal mining played in the region's history. The Hook Colliery, with its iconic wooden headframe, stands as a testament to the past, reminding us of the hard work, innovation, and determination of those who came before us.
