It chronicles the hundred year history of the former colliery village of Warsop Vale, on the Nottinghamshire/Derbyshire border, from when it was first built to house the miners of Warsop Main Colliery to when the colliery was closed and the iconic headstocks demolished a century later.

​The research was done by the residents of the village and written up by myself and the landlord of the Vale Hotel where the residents met to share memories and photographs.
