A ceramic mural on the side of a building on Lutterworth Road, Pailton village, Warwickshire.

Part of the Jubilee Imprint Project -
"The aim was to commemorate the community of Pailton at the time of the Diamond Jubilee and Olympics in 2012 by having a tile with every age and interest represented on it. Each tile on the display has been designed, made and glazed by families and friends of the village and fired in the kiln at the Old Pottery. Artist Lesley-Ann French, who lives in the village, said: “One of the older residents impressed her Land Girls badge into her tile while an eight day old baby put his tiny handprint his. “The panels now adorn walls around the village and should last for many years.” Cllr Gillias led the procession through the village which was bedecked with flags and bunting and bathed in sunshine. The mayor was followed by a crowd of children creating a cacophony of sound with every manner of musical instrument and a stream of smiling adults relishing the celebratory atmosphere and community spirit."
