The real name of this bronze grouping is "Teeming" by the Canadian sculptor Robin Bell. Completed between 1989 and 1990 the sculpture commemorates and celebrates Sheffield's steel heritage. It used to stand under cover in the heart of the Meadowhall shopping complex but - for whatever reason - was shifted outside a couple of years ago. It is known locally and affectionately as "The Steelmen".
