In tribute to the Town's historic links with linoleum
Lino Statue的点评
点评：Wednesday 30th April while walking down the High Street in Staines on Thames, it was along here the we stopped to look at this Statue.
It is near Tilly's Lane sandwiched between WH Smith/Post Office on one side of the street and the Harvester restaurant on the other
It depicts two men carrying a roll of linoleum which was once a major factory and largest employer in the Town.The statue is in homage to the town's historical links with lino.
On both ends of the roll of linoleum there is a pattern etched into the metal. There are words etched into the central part of the roll, an extract is: - "Roll out the lino from Staines to the world. Release every pattern from cheeseboard to twirl. In every hopeful kitchen let life unfurl bathrooms are artrooms."
In front of the statue there is a metal plaque which is inscribed with the following words :-
"The Staines Linoleum Factory operated where the Two Rivers Shopping Centre now stands. Fredrick Walton, the inventor of linoleum, opened the factory in 1864. By 1930 it covered 45 acres. It produced the first lino in the world and was was the largest employer in the area for many years."
The factory finally closed its doors in 1970 and the buildings were demolished for redevelopment in 2000.

翻译：4月30日，星期三，当我们漫步在泰晤士河畔斯坦斯的高街时，我们驻足欣赏这座雕像。
它位于蒂莉巷附近，街道一侧是史密斯邮局，另一侧是收割者餐厅。
雕像描绘了两名男子抬着一卷油毡，这卷油毡曾是镇上一家大型工厂和最大的雇主。这座雕像是为了纪念小镇与油毡的历史渊源。
油毡卷的两端都刻有金属图案。卷轴的中央刻有一段文字，摘录如下：“将斯坦斯的油毡铺展到世界各地。从奶酪板到旋转的图案，释放每一个图案。在每个充满希望的厨房里，让生活尽情绽放，浴室就是艺术空间。”
雕像前有一块金属牌匾，上面刻着如下文字：
“斯坦斯油毡工厂位于如今的双河购物中心所在地。油毡的发明者弗雷德里克·沃尔顿于1864年创办了这家工厂。到1930年，工厂占地45英亩。它生产了世界上第一批油毡，并多年来一直是该地区最大的雇主。”
工厂最终于1970年关闭，其建筑于2000年被拆除重建。
