Welder and Puddler

The Welder and Puddler by Steve Tomlinson are the final installment of this short journey along the A66. The figures were installed in February 2008 and cast by Robinson Engineering of Liverton Mines, the cost of this gateway was £182,000, i’ve never actually noticed but the wall is supposed to form the outline of Eston Hills. An iron puddler converted pig iron into wrought iron with a reverberating furnace.
