A memorial to the hard working women and children of Dundee's bygone Jute industry on which the City's fortunes were founded.

The song inscribed into the curved steel plates representing the woven jute emerging from the looms was sung by the women as they moved back and forth beside their machines...

"Oh dear me the Mill's gaen fast, the pair wee shifters, canna get their rest, shiftin bobbins, course and fine, they fairly mak ye work, for yer ten and nine"
