Where A Coal Mine Once Was, Dream Sculpture Rises

“A new 66ft (20m) high public artwork on the site of a former coal mine has been officially unveiled on Merseyside. The £1.8m Dream sculpture, in the form of a girl’s head with her eyes closed, is on the site of the former Sutton Manor Colliery in St Helens. A group of local ex-miners chose the design, which is made from 90 unique panels of pre-cast concrete.”
