On 20th October 1919, 31 men tragically lost their lives, and many more were injured, when the man engine (the transportation device that carried miners to and from the surface) failed at Levant Mine in one of Cornwall's worst mining disasters.

Thank you to Will and the @GoldenTreeUK team who created this special tribute on their own initiative, as part of a remarkable weekend back in 2018 that is still often talked about.
Meant a great deal to everyone here. Thank you.
