This "monument" overlooking Whitehaven harbour is, in fact, a ventilation chimney for the mine workings running beneath the sea. The coal seams in this area are very gasey, and the discharging methane has, on occasions, been ignited by lightning. Don't know how they put it out, but the fire-brigade had to play water on the outside to keep it cool. Probably not what they expected when they were called out to a chimney-fire 8^)

Having spent my childhood in what can only be described as the place god smiled on, I can only hope that this beautiful area does not die with the closure of the mine. Hopefully i will get back to the village this year.

It was just pure luck that we happened to go there that day It was nearly a disaster - I was on the quay just under the abbey when this huge wave broke in the corner and drenched everybody with sand and water. I was shielded somewhat but it was about two weeks before I finally got all the salt residue of my lens!
