Take a look at this Chimney. This is something known as a candlestick. As you might imagine, coal mines need ventilation. And so at almost every coal mine built at the time, you’ll find one of these chimneys built above ground. It’s not at all unusual to see one of these. With that said, though this candlestick and the mine below it are unusual, but for a different reason. Instead of this candlestick being the end of the mine, stopping short of the Irish Sea, it’s more like the beginning. There was a tunnel, known as the main road, that would eventually stretch over 4 miles beneath the seabed above. This main road was also the only way in and the only way out for the hundreds of men who worked here. It’s almost unfathomable that it even existed in the first place, but like the infamous Levant mine Disaster, the tragedy was almost worse than if the tunnel had simply flooded. This is the horrifying story of the Wellington Pit Disaster, and as always, viewer discretion is advised.
