This kind of public art is even more important in its current location, bearing in mind there is absolutely nothing left at the original Boosbeck mine site (apart from the shaft monument – see the previous Boosbeck post).
Just in passing, has anything happened to the South Skelton site as mentioned about 8 months ago?
