| Description | These items were deposited at different points by the National Coal Board. They were described as 'miscellanea' upon receipt and tagged on to the typescript catalogue in no particular order. The original groupings have been retained, although these are, in some cases, artificial. This miscellaneous series of records largely comprises price lists (although these can also be found elsewhere if retained by individual colliery companies), agreements, railway rates, early wage books, etc.
