I am a member of the Pinxton & South Normanton local history society & would like to ask permission to copy out your colliery shaft sinking details of numbers 1, 2,3,6 & Brookhill colliery to put into our John King memorial workshop museum on Victoria Road Pinxton, which we are now extending it will be an added interest to the local people & school-children, the museum is worth a visit there is no entrance fee but a voluntary small donation for up-keep it is especially an interest to me as I started work at Brookhill in 1945 at the age of 14 & was one of the onsetters there
