The Saltgrass pub in an industrial area of Sunderland. The pub dates from a time when Sunderland was a centre for shipbuilding. The modern industrial building to the left doubtlessly occupies the site of a shipyard.

Looking over the River Wear from below the Stadium of Light
Viewers may be reassured to know that the figures in the foreground are statuary!
The installation is entitled 'Men of Steel' by Graeme Hopper (2001). The steel men push boulders of coal up the hill to pay homage to the generations of miners who worked in the Wearmouth Colliery where the Stadium of Light now stands. The artist said: "It represents man's social struggle and will to survive against the odds. The figures show purpose and aims, they symbolise hope and achievement."
