This mural is on Northumberland Road, outside the side entrance to BHS. Apparently the mural was commissioned by Newcastle City Council and Northern Arts back in 1974. Come back tomorrow for pics of each individual mural!
(Or if you’re impatient you can check out timmonet’s pics halfway down this page!)
PS Sorry for the late post - I’m away and had to get my husband to email me the pics from home as I forgot to set the post up in advance!! Thanks D :)

I have always liked the potted history of Newcastle depicted in the mural. Beth, I notice that you have managed to get another reflection shot in the glass above the second panel.
Here is that same mural, in use on the cover of the ‘programme of events’ for the 1975 Newcastle Festival . . .
