News on Your Driffield. Your Future.

Work has begun on the mural installation at 41 Middle Street North.

Mural artist, Lewis of Durham Spray paints has started preparing the wall for the final design to take shape within the coming weeks.

‘The Big Picture’ plans to be a celebration of the heritage of Driffield and the surrounding area as well as a nod to the important features of today.

A consultation took place last summer via the Commonplace website, asking residents for their views on the most important historical and present-day features that represent Driffield.

The artist, Lewis, also spent a day at the Umbrella Plaza in June speaking to local people to hear what they feel has brought Driffield to become the place it is today and its important landmarks and features.

Residents were then asked to submit photos of some of the most popular choices, elements of which could feature on the wall art.

Driffield Town Council has received a grant for ‘The Big Picture’ from the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
