This symbol honours the twenty-six men who lost their lives in
the Plymouth Mine Disaster ,May 9 ,1992.
The Miner's lamp, central to the Design, represents pride of
their profession.
Extending outward from the lamp are twenty-six "rays of
light",symbolic of external love and strength that emanates
from their memories.
The light also pays tribute to the kindness courage and
humanity that people extended to one another throughout this
tragedy.
Dominating over the darkness of the mine, the light that
once gave guidance and hope to the miners,now continues to
do the same for their families;
"Their Light Shall Always Shine"
