A 100ft high artwork of a miner adorns a beach famously washed over each day with millions of coal particles which once supplied the former colliery.<br /><br />The giant bare-chested figure chiselling coal was carved into the sand at Cambois Beach in Northumberland. <br /><br />Despite the nearby pit shutting in 1968, the village's industrial past is still evident by the black coal particles coating the shoreline. <br /><br />The artwork was created by retired GP turned artist Claire Eason who spent hours painstakingly drawing the image with a rake at low-tide on Sunday (11/5).
