The extraordinary story of the two early collieries at Neston, in west Cheshire, has been largely overlooked by historians. Yet, for a time the main coal mine, Ness Colliery, was more successful than most of its contemporaries in nearby south-west Lancashire and North Wales. It was the first large industrial site in west Cheshire and introduced the area’s earliest steam engine.

The economic changes of the industrial revolution came to different parts of England at different times. By examining the geography of these changes, this book shows how the pattern of production in an important coalfield changed as it became part of the regional economic system developing around the port of Liverpool. In the first part of the book the author develops a model for studying the geography of economic change by combining the economic location theory of August Losch with concepts from systems theory. He concludes that normative theories possess great value in allowing an ordered description of the process of growth, if not an explanation of it. The theoretical model allows the author to analyse the complex process of change in the coalfield. The combination of theoretical enquiry and detailed archival work provides a thorough account of the transformation of an important industry. In doing so, the book casts considerable light on the process of regional economic development in the English industrial revolution.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1882 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXIII. MODERN MINING.--MEASURES OF SAFETY AGAINST EXPLOSION. The deep sinkings approaching to 300 fathoms made in the Great Northern coal-field, at Monkwearmouth, Seaham, Ryhope, &c, about the middle of the present century, have been followed by a still deeper range of sinkings, in which the pits of the Lancashire and Cheshire coal-field have taken the lead. Here the Astley deep pit at Dukinfield reached a depth of 350 fathoms in 1858; at Rosebridge, Wigan, a depth of 408 fathoms was attained in 1869; and more recently the new winning at the Ashton Moss Colliery, Audenshaw, near Manchester, has been carried down considerably further, the "Great Mine" coal having been sunk to on the 5th of March, 1881, at the depth of 448 fathoms. Coincidently with the deepening of the mines, a continual enlargement of the shafts has been going on; and while at the commencement of the century a diameter of 12 feet was considered a suitable size for pits of 100 fathoms depth, at the present day the Lancashire pits are being made 16 or 18 feet in diameter, to work the coal lying at depths of from 200 to 400 fathoms, and in a few instances even larger sizes have been adopted. The improvements in the mechanical engineering of collieries have more than kept pace with the increasing depth of the mines, and by means of powerful winding engines (reaching at times as much as 1,500 horse-power), acting directly on drums from 15 to 30 feet in diameter, coals are drawn at many important collieries at the rate of 100 tons or more per hour: the cage, with its load of four, six, or eight carriages, containing two or three tons of coal, travelling in the quickest part of its run at the speed of a mile per minute, or equal to that of an express train.

Remarkable events included devastating acts of sabotage committed by Ness Colliery’s owners on the neighbouring works, and the introduction of underground canals to haul coals deep under the Dee Estuary where most of the mining occurred. Figures as diverse as the engineer George Stephenson and Nelson’s future mistress Emma, Lady Hamilton are part of the mines’ story.
