The British Pathe Cameras visited Swadlincote in 1954 to show the extent of subsidence from mining. This is a low resolution copy available free from the British Pathe website. High resolution copies can be purchased from Pathe for a small fee.
I believe the voice on the film is that of Eamonn Andrews. A famous Sports commentator and T.V. presenter in the 1950's
