The Muster Point, Steel memorial in Mayfield, Australia
The Muster Point stands as a steel and bronze installation measuring eight meters high, sixteen meters long, and twelve meters wide on Industrial Drive.
Built in 1999, this memorial pays tribute to the Newcastle Steelworks of BHP and its 67,000 workers who operated the plant for 84 years.
The memorial structure was created through collaboration between sculptor Julie Squires and BHP workers in the Fabrication Shop before the plant closure.
The memorial features walk-through gates that remain locked but can be opened for specific access during designated visiting hours.
The seventy-tonne monument occupies land that was part of the original steelworks site, selected for its strategic location near coal deposits.
