The stainless steel abstract sculpture, with human hand outlines engraved on the each side of the steel & in relief on the granite plinth. The text "Yesterday will not return forward we go towards the light" is engraved on each side of the plinth.
The sculpture stands over 7 feet tall & is mounted looking across the Valley, & overlooking the Bus & Rail stations, at this transport gateway to this former mining Town, in the Rhymney Valley. The Welsh valleys used to be the Center of South Wales Coalfield. Now not a single deep mine exists in Wales.
