Wellington Pit Candlestick, Whitehaven

The Candlestick (ventilation shaft for Wellington Pit) and mosaic, Whitehaven.
The 8.5m mosaic by Scartworks was opened in 2010. The wording by Francis Fleming of Frizington reads:
'Billowing sails, coal on the rails
Smell the salt air, John Paul Jones standing there.
There’s coal on the beach, Whitehaven’s fingers reach
Underground. The world around.'
