Summary

Description
English: Monument in the parish churchyard of All Saints, Flixborough, to the 28 workers killed in the Flixborough disaster at the Nypro chemical works in Flixborough on 1 June 1974, which killed 28 people and injured 36. A monument, a bronze casting of mallards in flight, was placed in front of the offices at the rebuilt site in 1977. It was moved to its current site in All Saints' churchyard when the factory closed. In 1984 the sculpture was stolen, and has never been recovered. The plinth bearing the names of those who died still stands outside the church in Flixborough.
