Wow - how brilliant to have that portrayed as part of the monument. I remember the mines closing down and how destitute the miners became, their livelihood stripped from them ( even if in truth the mining industry had been in trouble for years).
I find the statues both endearing and inventive. A lovely tribute :-)
