Description:
Are your kids more than 5 years old and more than 1 metre tall? If so, then this really could be a family day out with a difference! Find out what it was like to mine for coal by going underground over 500 metres with an experienced miner. The top workings are also really interesting, especially for those who may be too claustrophobic to venture down the pit. The experience is offered free by the National Museums of Wales.
