The Pursgloves of Hucknall - [HUCK]
Hucknall Torkard (1295-1915) has developed into the town of Hucknall. The economic base is in farming and framework knitting. St. Mary Magdalene was the parish church at the centre of a once thriving market town. In 1862 Hucknall Colliery No.1 (Top Pit) opened and in 1866 No. 2 (Bottom Pit) was opened. The collieries closed in 1986. |
