Fact of the day

Seaton was an important port for several centuries, supplying ships and sailors for Edward I's wars against Scotland and France.

In the 14th century heavy storms caused a landslip which partially blocked the estuary, and the shingle bank started to build up. In 1868 the arrival of the railway reduced the use of the harbour.

On this day...

On October 21 1966, tragedy struck the Welsh village of Aberfan when 144 people, mainly children, were been buried by a coal slag heap. The last body was recovered nearly a week after the disaster happened with National Coal Board later found to to be wholly responsible.
