Placed on this gable end in 2000 and funded by the local residents' association along with National Lottery Millenium (sic) funding, the mural is "dedicated to those who died in the mining industry at Markham Colliery". The bottom tiles - no doubt sponsored by local companies - appear to advertise those selfsame businesses.
