The Grand Opening of Stainforth Museum and Return of the Last Piece of Coal from Hatfield Main!

Today marked the official opening of Stainforth Museum, a treasure trove of our local history and heritage. The highlight of the day was Annie Rodgers receiving the last piece of coal mined from Hatfield Main Colliery, which has finally returned home after being on show in Doncaster since 2017.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this special occasion, including Mick Lanaghan (Leader of Hatfield Main Heritage Trust), Dave Marshall (The Mayor of Stainforth) and local children from Holy Family Primary School - your presence made the event truly memorable.

For those who couldn't make it today, we invite you to visit the museum and experience the stories and artefacts that connect us to our proud past and roots.
