South Hetton history
South Hetton Colliery
South Hetton Coal Company, owned by Colonel Thomas Bradyll, first sank shafts in 1831. Large scale production began two years later and corresponded with a large increase in population. Employment peaked in the 1930s when over 1400 people worked at the colliery.
Angus Sibbet Murder
Angus Sibbet was found murdered in his Jaguar car under Pesspool Bridge in January 1967. Dennis Stafford and Michael Luvaglio were later convicted of the crime. The killing inspired the 1970s gangster film Get Carter starring Michael Caine.
