HFF everyone.

HFF everyone.
This memorial was commissioned in 2005 by Whitby Civic Society who wanted a memorial to seamen which would be both practical and decorative. It takes the form of galvanised steel gates which incorporate a design of a modern trawler alongside a ship from Capatain Cook's era. In the centre there is a motif of a landed catch.
This replaced the original storm gates which close off the West Pier during stormy weather.

Very descriptive and at the same time symbolic illustrations in this wonderfully designed gate. Well presented in b&w!
A little belated HFF also to you, Amelia.
I love the shadows on the ground. They are so much clearer:
