Talk:Statue of Industry

And then what?
The article states the statue was seen in 1931, but that was 90 years ago. What happened to it? Was the site closed after the company went out of business? Did a later inventory or map show nothing where the statue was? The article should at least say something about that. Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 12:29, 2 December 2023 (UTC)


 * All valid questions, . The reason the article does not say anything about the post-1931 history, however, is because I haven't found any sources discussing it. You should feel free to take a look too if you wish; there's a book (Arcs, Sparks & Engineers) on the history of A. Reyrolle & Company that is in my list of things to track down, and it's possible that libraries in Hebburn might have additional ideas. --Usernameunique (talk) 00:29, 4 December 2023 (UTC)


 * If it's not there now (sorry, I can't pop over and have a look—too many time zones involved), there might be something to the effect of "Most of the Reyrolle Works site has been closed; the statue's fate is uncertain." Something to tie it up. Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 11:56, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
