Description: | Two steel pillars with collars. The first carries the names of all the mines in south Wales that were still in operation in 1964, the year that the Oval Basin and Bute West Dock were filled in. The second is inscribed with the names of all the ports that Cardiff exported coal to. Scrap metal from Tower Colliery was used to produce one pillar while metal salvaged from Bute West Dock was used for the second. Additional Information: Deep Navigation celebrates the history of the former basin for the Bute West Dock. | Subjects: | Sculpture | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Sculptor: Gec, Stefan | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=6727... | Go to resource |
