The Piccadilly Mining Heritage Group was formed in October 2006 with a committee of eight members, 2 of which are ex miners of Kingsbury & Dexter Collieries. The group was formed to highlight the village of Piccadilly and Kingsbury Colliery. The group was successful in obtaining funding from The Heritage Lottery to write a book on the history of Piccadilly and the connection with Kingsbury Collieries.

An Open Day of photographs and memorabilia took place on Saturday 28th February at Piccadilly Community Centre, it was very well attended by both old and young. Response from visitors was excellent.
