- Abstract:
- The band was founded in 1850 and was supported by the colliery owners, the Blackett family, and also by subscription. A set of rules were drawn up which, by today's standards, were quite strict in their forfeits and fines, though the issues they foresaw in their members' behaviours are still relevant today!
