These are under the two bridges that span the dual carriageway above the underpass from the nearby School to the local shops and community Center In Tinkers Bridge. The theme's are carried across from the first bridge to the second one .

Starting with the The Title Mad Wizard of Oz , this shows the start of the story with the farmyard in a whirlwind a tractor is in the sky and the farmhouse flying by the Wicked witch of the North is pointing her green finger at you in the foreground are the blue hatted munchkins and the yellow brick road winds over the green hills, the next bit has the good witch of the east looking at the farmhouse that has landed on top of a figure next we see the Scarecrow with is head in his hand by the yellow brick road with the tin man and Dorothy walking along the road the lion is coward by Toto barking at him, the yellow brick road then goes thro the red field of poppies to the Emerald City in the background.

The mural on the otherside of the bridge shows a young girl in bed dreaming and her dreams are abstract designs in bubbles starting with a gold angled design and then a design of intertwined red tubes with a green background, the next is blue ballons with yellow oblongs, leading into another abstract design of red fading to yellow with red toadstools along the bottom, the next is yellow splodges with green bubbles.
both Murals are bright and colourful, I could only find one signature.
