Summary

Description
Українська: Скульптура "Лиття" by Robin Bell 1989-90 присвячена Бенджаміну Хантсману, винахідникові тигельного способу отримання ливарної сталі. Торгівельний центр Медоухол у місті Шеффелді, де проживав Хантсман.

На меморіальній дошці написано:

Бенджамін Хантсман (1704 - 1770) - годинникар з Донкастера, що прийшов у Шеффілд шукаючи якісну сталюку для годинникових пружин. Техніка виробництва сталі, що він її розвинув використовуючи глиняні тиглі значно покращила якість і зробило шеффельдську сталь винятковою у виробництві сталі. Будучи щирим квакером, він не дозволив намалювати свій портрет, але тигельний процес є нагадуванням про нього. Цей процес використовувався понад 200 років.
