A silhouette of a miner was installed on the roof of the Horizontal Engine House in August 2024. The Somerset Miners Welfare Trust has been placing these silhouettes around former mine sites in Somerset, and the AIBT would like to thank the Trust for allowing one to stray far away from its companions.
