Pictured: A crane getting pulled out of the sea at Mumbles Pier. Thursday 24 January 2019<br />
Re: A recovery operation is on its way to retrieve a crane which got stuck in mud and trapped by the incoming tide by Mumbles Pier near Swansea, Wales, UK.<br />
The crane was part of work on the refurbishment of Mumbles Pier.<br />
The historic landmark is undergoing a £3.2m restoration which began in last year.<br />
But work has been delayed partly due to two large storms which hit south Wales and now the crane became stuck in mud on Tuesday afternoon.
