History

Jamison Coal & Coke Company opened a shaft-entry coal mine at Forbes Road in 1900. Known as Jamison No. 3 Mine, its production peaked in 1910, when the facility produced nearly 600,000 tons of coal and employed over 400 people. Jamison ceased operations in Forbes Road in the 1950s.[4] Several buildings and other remains that were part of the mining complex are visible along Hugus Street as of July 2019.
