For what it's worth the miner statue was never designed to be displayed on Dover Seafront. It was sculpted in 1966 and put on display at Richborough Power Station for over thirty years. It was only moved to Dover in 1997 when the station closed. Powergen then donated it to DDC who decided to place it on the seafront.
Plans have been underway to move and replace it with a more fitting monument since late 2006.
