LOCAL HISTORY
Netherton is a small village in West Yorkshire The
village was originally named "Nether Shitlington", but
this was changed sometime after1855.
It lies about 4 miles south-west of Wakefield, 3 miles south of
Ossett, 1 mile south of Horbury.
The village was once home to two collieries -
Denby Grange and Bullcliffe Wood. The latter was one of the
leading pits behind the UK Miners@ Strike (1984-1985). Following
the end of the strike, the two pits merged together with
Caphouse Colliery to form an amalgamated colliery at Denby
Grange, which finally closed in 1991. Netherton may not seem
like a typical pit village to a visitor: there are no mementos
to the pits and most locals do not consider coal mining to
be a large part of their heritage. This is probably due to the
fact that many of the miners at the two pits commuted in from
nearby Ossett and Horbury.
