Key parts of the Museum have been treated with an anti-viral protective coating and Covid security measures are in place.

These include the 70th anniversary of the closure of Camerton Colliery, the story of Alex Hann and his Koncap mine safety training invention, an 1883 survey of the Waldegrave Pits in Radstock, the stories behind commemorative watches presented to Radstock families after WW1, the Spanish ‘flu pandemic that hit the Coalfield in 1918
