The Fourstones Millennium Monument is a striking work of art in the village of Fourstones, Northumberland, featuring a large colliery wheel – a tribute to the region's industrial heritage. Erected around the year 2000 as a symbol of the transition to a new millennium, the monument commemorates the coal mines that once shaped the landscape and the community. The colliery wheel stands alongside Stanegate Roman Road, creating a visual landmark in the open landscape.
