On Monday Mr Madge came in to speak to years 5 and 6 to tell us about when he was down in the mine. Mr Madge worked in three mines Cambrian, Cwm and Wattstown. He started mining at the age of 14 and finished at the age of 54. He helped the people in the Cambrian disaster, his farther worked on the surface so did Mr Madge but as he got older he worked underground. When he was younger he used to get all the muck from the coal.
