History

Hillstown Miners' Welfare Trust.

Originally set up by the miners to support the welfare of workers in the local community.

​

1924 

A regular subscription was collected from the local miners and eventually, a suitable plot of land at Hillstown was purchased.

A miners’ welfare club was built and the remaining land was used as a  recreation/sports field.
