"1 Visit 1.85% old tupton mine"
I don't know of any "old tupton mine" but have worked on the Tupton seam, which is one of the lower seams on the lower coal measures.

"1 Visit 1.85% longwall advancing method"
Basically the opposite of retreat longwalling, where you drive two roads into a block of coal to leave a safety barrier of a few yards, then drive the face between the two roads, install the machinery and start cutting coal going inbye. Now days the two gate roads are cut in advance of the face to eliminate stableholes and ripping that used to be done on thinner seams, this keeps the shearer from being held up for various reasons.
A good site to see drawings of an advancing set up is the Wollongong University site. The address can be found on our "Links" page.

Old Tupton is a village in Derbyshire, near Chesterfield. There could of been a colliery of that name or else it could be a local name for another colliery.

Old Tupton is a village in Derbyshire, near Chesterfield. There could of been a colliery of that name or else it could be a local name for another colliery. In a search, Tupton Colliery does show up, but where?? Just a mention in an old book, no indication as to what county or town..

A clue could be The Clay Cross Company.
A Report to both Houses of Parliament. By Arnold Morley M.P. November 7th. 1882.
On this date at 10am. An explosion of gas took place resulting in the death of forty five men and boys. The colliery was working the Blackshale seam which was four feet six inches thick with two three inch thick dirt bands with a white sandstone floor with clay and stove. The system of coal getting was the longwall with stalls. Working lights were candles, naked lights were used throughout the mines except where gas was met and then safety lamps were issued. The mine was in an area where most of the collieries worked with candles on account of the comparative rare occurrence of gas and Parkhouse had the reputation of being one of the safest collieries in the district.
The pit was ventilated by a furnace eight and a half feet and monthly checks were carried out on the amount of air flow in areas of the mine and recorded, the furnace was at the foot of the shaft. The working shift was, in summer 6am.-2.45pm, and in winter 7am-3.45pm. Prior to the explosion there had been reports of small explosions at the pit without loss of life or injury. Prior to these explosions there had been an explosion at the companies Number Four Main Tupton colliery culminating in the loss of eight lives.
The barometer had fallen in the morning giving rise to a build up of (firedamp) methane which has gone undetected by either the night shift or day shift deputy. The methane gas was ignited causing an explosion which was so severe it blew the headstocks off. Those who were not killed by the explosion were suffocated by the after damp (A mixture of noxious eases containing carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide) after the explosion. The furnace was blown out and the ventilation ceased.
It is not known where the exact point of the explosion was but it is suspected that either a rift n the roof at number one flat with a build up of gas in it (methane being lighter than air) ignited by a naked light as it mixed with air. Or layering of gas in number thirty two stall on number three flat followed by a subsequent and smaller explosion in eighty five gate, the latter being the most likely There were twenty six horses in the area of the explosion and the colliery was later entered from Flaxpiece mine nearby to recover the bodies.
The subsequent report on the disaster concluded that there had been no negligence by the Clay Cross company or its officials and in its findings it suggested, more and widespread use of safety lamps, more than one inspection for gas on each shift and better ventilation other than by a furnace. © Neil Wilson 2008 - www.claycross.org.uk

Old Tupton is a village in Derbyshire, near Chesterfield. There could of been a colliery of that name or else it could be a local name for another colliery. In the late 60s/early70s a number Tupton men were transferred to Shirebrook Colliery. A chap called Alfie Poyser worked with me and Barry States in 18s loader gate stable hole. Old Tupton is not far from Clay Cross where Dennis Skinner was born. Old Tupon is now famous for Tupton Ware, hand-crafted, ceramics, my wife collects them.

Old Tupton is not far from Clay Cross where Dennis Skinner was born. Old Tupon is now famous for Tupton Ware, hand-crafted, ceramics, my wife collects them. Just to clear it up, about Tupton, I know the men lived at Tupton, but they may have worked at Grassmoor, or elsewhere. Derbyshire Times report. January 1886. On Christmas Eve a sad and fatal accident to Mr. John Harrison secretary and manager of the Boythorpe colliery company LTD occurred. he was only appointed to the post about three months ago in succession to Mr. G.J. Wood who had left and took up residence in London. It appears that the colliery has two shafts one for the Blackshale and one for the Tupton seams. They are 200/300 yards apart and are connected on the surface by 2 lines of railway that cross the main road from Chesterfield to Matlock.North Derbyshire Collieries 45 For hauling the wagons about a small locomotive owned by the company is used and on Thursday evening this locomotive was at the Tupton pit at about 6:15 pm. just as Mr. Harrison was proceeding to his residence in Whitecotes only a short distance from the crossing. He walked on and just as he was passing over the crossing the engine which he had apparently on account of the fog prevailing had not observed had been put in motion came up suddenly and struck him. He was 42 years of age and leaves a widow and seven children. the engine went across to the Tupton pit at 6:15 pm. and it crossed the road in order to get a little speed to push the tubs up the incline to the coke ovens. Mr. William Blanche Hodgeson Boythorpe House colliery manager said his attention had never been called to the crossing in question nor had any complaint been made. Strike info. 21st June 1876. It was resolved by the miners who had stopped work that the following price list would be the only one for future workings: Tupton pit: Heading with bars. 4/6d 5/-. Cutting 1/6d 1/6d Ripping 1/9d 2/6d Accident. 23rd. January 1858. Clay Cross No3 Tupton Colliery accident four men killed when rope broke.

I wonder what year that pit closed, I can't say I've come across the name, other than for the seam until I noticed it in the Keyword Analysis. Although, I am still running across "new" names of old pits long gone around the country.

Boulby had a "full time" rescue team trained to the highest standards with full equipment provided by the company and maintained to the highest standards. Each shift had several volunteers who did monthly training. I think the nearest rescue station was at Hauton Le Springs (sp) in Durham, a long way off in a major underground accident, hence a full rescue team trained and ready for any accident underground. During my time there, they had annual competitions to test their skills out with cups and awards for the best team.
