Worksop and the surrounding area has a proud mining heritage, and the strikes and protests of the eighties were a huge story at the time.

Here we take a look back at the strikes at collieries in Harworth, Manton and Welbeck.

Have a look through this gallery and see if you can spot any familiar faces.
