Sculpture on the end of the sugar tongue, Whitehaven. Depicts a young man watching shipping through a telescope whilst seated on a capstan.

Capstan (remains) pulley block and mooring bollard on the west pier, Whitehaven. The sets of railing protect sets of steps, some of which are rather worn and require greater care. To the left is the route of the pier railway, showing as the surface has been cut away into a channel for the track alignment.
