<p>The bronze sculpture of a miner and rescuer was unveiled on the 100th Anniversary of the Senghenydd Disaster - at 08:10 on October 14, 2013. it was designed by sculptor Les Johnson.<br />
<br />
The Senghenydd colliery disaster, also known as the Senghenydd explosion (Welsh: Tanchwa Senghennydd), occurred at the Universal Colliery in Senghenydd, near Caerphilly, Glamorgan, Wales, on 14 October 1913. <br />
<br />
The explosion, which killed 439 miners and a rescuer, is still the worst mining accident in the United Kingdom. <br />
<br />
Universal Colliery, located on the South Wales Coalfield, produced steam coal which was much in demand. <br />
<br />
Some of the region's coal seams contained high quantities of firedamp, a highly explosive gas consisting of methane and hydrogen, and were prone to explosions. <br />
<br />
The Memorial Garden was opened on the 100th Anniversary of the disaster - October 14, 2013.</p>
