Big Pit
Set high up with spectacular surrounding views, this World Heritage site is fabulous
Big Pit is a real coal mine & is one of Britain's leading mining museums with free entry. With facilities to educate & entertain all ages, Big Pit is an exciting & informative day out. For a small supplement go 300 feet underground with a real miner & see what life was like for the thousands of men who worked at the coal face
