During the last 15 years thousands of hours of research has been undertaken into the history of Swannington and the surrounding area. Tangents have taken the researcher to many places throughout the UK. Research is continuing and new information added. The intention is to document this research in several series of books so that it will be available to the public in perpetuity.
Enjoy Heritage UK is working on three books about the Califat Coal Mine, Swannington. The first book will be published in 2027
The first excavation of the Califat coal mine buildings began in 1993 and apart from a seven year interlude it has been going ever since. This book has been written and is being edited down to about 400 pages.
