Stuart Millward installing the mine capping plaques outside the Civic Centre in Ebbw Vale"

Ebbw Vale

1986

I did the work for numbers 11 and 12 of the mine capping project. It was one of the rare pieces of work for which I could work without reversing the artwork.

 

They are situated outside the civic centre in Ebbw Vale. Number 11 covers a pumping shaft.

 

Newman Evans was the manager of Catherall's Brickworks. We worked well together during the installation. He subsequently worked for North Wales Timber and then Ruabon Brickworks before retiring.

This series of photos ( 213.13 - 20 ) on the archive shows the progress of the installation of numbers 11 and 12.
