    East Bedlington Parish Council have commissioned a stainless steel memorial to the A pit (1838 to 1971), going in at the entrance to Bower Grange and it's nearly fully installed. Then I assume there will be an official opening of the monument but haven't heard when. One of our grandkids was driving past the entrance to Chatsworth Drive, Bower Grange, Bedington Station, and saw the work going on and took the photo. above and this one :-
