January of 1993 brought the end of Grimethorpe colliery. Ironically it was also the year that the Grimethorpe Colliery Band won the World Brass Band Championship with a superb score of 99 marks out of a possible 100. This book presents the story of the close of the pits, and the victory of the brass band.
