  Looks like it might be the Senghenydd Colliery Disaster, the worst in British history--439 men died in an explosion or from being trapped in the damaged shafts, on 14 October 1913: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senghenydd_Colliery_Disaster

• swanq said:

  I agree. See www.welshcoalmines.co.uk/GlamEast/Senghenydd.htm for a photo of the same site. More pictures are at the National Library of Wales: digidol.llgc.org.uk/METS/SEN00001/frames?div=0&subdiv...
