Since the publication of 'Weep Mothers Weep',
which told the narrative of the Wood Pit Explosion, Haydock, 7th.
June, 1878 several interesting finds have come to light. A complete
record of the Disaster Fund Subscriptions , diaries written in far
away New Zealand, and perhaps the greatest find of all, a
commemorative album of photographs taken at Wood Pit and in Haydock
at the time of the explosion. These photographs are not just of local
interest. They will interest and excite many historians and others
who are interested in photography.
