The memorial is on a green space by a road junction. A plaque on it reads: "The Gateway of Norton le Moors was opened by the Lord Mayor, Councillor Jean Edwards, on 29 September 2006. It is dedicated to the men, women and children who worked in the mining and ceramics industries." There are coal wagons placed nearby: one is seen here.
