Details of Event
Fall of roof on road, cliff, 4.5 feet by 3 feet by 12 inches thick, fell from two unseen joints. The place until three weeks previously had been full of water, which probably weakened the roof. The road was 8 to 9 feet wide, and road posts wore the only roof supports. No.3 Rhondda seam.
