A unique mural celebrating the rich history and heritage of Chester’s Brook Street is unveiled on Monday, 8 August.
The Chester Renaissance project on the side of number 73 has been created by artist Gary Drostle and will be unveiled by Councillor Herbert Manley, Executive Member for Prosperity which includes Regeneration.
“There has been a great deal of interest during the two months it has taken to create the mural and scaffolding on four levels has acted as an untended veil” said Councillor Manley.
“The mural’s street scene is animated with references to events from the past and the present and I am sure will be enjoyed by residents, visitors and shoppers.”
Added Steven Broomhead, Chairman of Chester Renaissance: “The ten metres by eight metres mural could become a tourist attraction in its own right which is great news for local businesses.
“It is sited at a very busy thoroughfare between St Anne’s Street and Brook Street and adds to the special character of the street.”
