点评:Clipstone Headstocks, a must visit.
What has been a decaying blot on the landscape for years is now turning into a venue that the people of Clipstone can be proud of once again. This is all down to the vision and hard work of Stuart and Jules assisted by a handful of volunteers.
They have stopped the decaying of this historical mine and created a museum dedicated to the hard working mining community. There knowledge is evident when you go on one of the tours and listen to Stuart's re creation of a typical working shift that the local miner's would endure.
Stuart has also researched the history of the army camp that was based on the same site, plus all of the local manufacturers that sadly are no longer with us. He has cleverly weaved all of this into the tour. You will see and hear all about the extensive collection of military vehicles and equipment he has gathered,plus so much more. I have also been to many of the events that they have organised to raise funds for the ongoing project, Fireworks displays, Music events, Food festivals, Military events and so much more, se their website for up and coming events for 2025.
I would hope that local authorities can see what this brings to the community and support it with what ever help they can raise.
I'm looking forward to many more visits this year. Hope to see you there, you won't be disappointed.

多年来,这里一直是景观中一个腐朽的污点,现在又变成了 Clipstone 人民可以引以为豪的场所。这一切都归功于 Stuart 和 Jules 的远见和辛勤工作,以及一些志愿者的帮助。
他们阻止了这座历史矿井的腐朽,并创建了一个专门为辛勤工作的采矿社区而建的博物馆。当您参加其中一次旅行并听 Stuart 重新创造当地矿工将忍受的典型工作轮班时,他们的知识显而易见。
Stuart 还研究了位于同一地点的军营的历史,以及所有不幸不再存在的当地制造商。他巧妙地将所有这些融入了旅游中。您将看到和听到他收集的大量军用车辆和设备,以及更多内容。我还参加了他们为正在进行的项目筹集资金而组织的许多活动,烟花表演、音乐活动、美食节、军事活动等等,请参阅他们的网站了解 2025 年即将举行的活动。
我希望地方当局能够看到这给社区带来了什么,并尽其所能为其提供支持。
我期待今年能有更多次访问。希望在那里见到你,你不会失望的。
