An iconic symbol of northern pride since 1998, Anthony Gormley's iconic 20-metre high sculpture in Gateshead, Tyne and Wear, is influenced and inspired by the experience of the Coalminers - who worked in pits beneath the site. It was constructed from 1994-1998, and is made from steel and its creation is regarded as a significant engineering achievement. It has a dominant presence for those travelling on the A1.
The dream of a determined woman, the Minack Theatre is one of the most picturesque performance sites in the world. Perched on the cliffs on a headland near Land's End in Cornwall, it was built largely with hand tools, and was the life's work of its creator.
