PDMHS Harold Sarjeant Award

I'm pleased to announce that the Technical Speleological Group, to use our full and proper title, has been awarded the 2018 Harold Sarjeant Conservation Award for mine preservation in the Peak District by the Peak District Mines Historical Society, for our work on the excavation and restoration of Longcliffe Mine and Son of Longcliffe. This is a great honour, which demonstrates that caving clubs often lead the way with underground conservation projects. Long may it continue.

Phil Wolstenholme.
