The complex geology and narrow seams made coal extraction difficult. Tonnage increased throughout the 19th century, reaching a peak around 1901, when there were 79 separate collieries and annual production was 1,250,000 tons per annum. However, due to local geological difficulties and manpower shortages, output declined and the number of pits reduced from 30 at the beginning of the 20th century to 14 by the mid-thirties; the last two pits, Kilmersdon and Writhlington, closed in September 1973. <a href="/wiki/Manufacturing_industry" class="mw-redirect" title="Manufacturing industry">Manufacturing industries</a> such as <a href="/wiki/Printing" title="Printing">printing</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bookbinding" title="Bookbinding">binding</a> and <a href="/wiki/Packaging" title="Packaging">packaging</a> provide some local employment.
