Ferneybeds Colliery
I don't know whether anyone else has noticed but in the Public Notices section of todays Morpeth Herald (15th December) someone has applied for planning permission to re-open Ferneybeds Colliery. The application includes remove the existing cap, new winding gear, fans and two tunnels under the Mile Road. If there's any old sinkers out there that fancy coming out of retirement then you'll never get a better chance!!
