South Crofty mine in Cornwall closed in 1999 - not only the last tin mine to close in Cornwall, but the last working tin mine in Europe. Voices of miners and their families are woven into a text by Nick Darke and music by Jim Carey.
With contributions from Geoff Sullivan, Mark Kaczmarek, Imogen Kaczmarek and Karla Riekstins.
