Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Hockley Flyover art
Hi Andy Couldn't resist a visit to get these panels on to my Heritage Website! They are now surveyed and edited, with several pictures on Wikimedia. I also took the opportunity to survey and add the new statue A Real Birmingham Family unveiled today in front of the Library of Birmingham (also uploaded to Wikimedia) Regards Brian On 27 October 2014 13:08, Andy Mabbett a...@pigsonthewing.org.uk wrote: On 26 October 2014 23:31, Rob Nickerson rob.j.nicker...@gmail.com wrote: See here if you're interested in what it looks like: http://wharferj.wordpress.com/2012/02/13/three-murals-bill-mitchell-gordon-cullen-dorothy-annan/ Fantastic; thank you - as is the other work featured.

Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Hockley Flyover art
Andy, your post was a good reminder to me to change the tagging status of Cornwall Tower, which is very close to the flyover and was demolished yesterday. It created a new temporary artwork in concrete called Rubble ;-) Cheers Andy -Original Message- From: Andy Mabbett [mailto:a...@pigsonthewing.org.uk] Sent: 26 October 2014 18:45 To: talk-gb-westmidlands Subject: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Hockley Flyover art I used to drive under and over Hockley Flyover daily, but I never knew about the artwork(s) there, by William Mitchell: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Mitchell_(sculptor) until today.

Re: [Talk-gb-westmidlands] Hockley Flyover art
I recognise that artist's work! He has a piece in Coventry too. I was pretty sure I'd mapped it and could just add the wikidata tags but turns out I was wrong. Anyway it's now mapped and includes wikidata tags and the English Heritage listed status tags: http://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3151797275 See here if you're interested in what it looks like: http://wharferj.wordpress.com/2012/02/13/three-murals-bill-mitchell-gordon-cullen-dorothy-annan/ Thanks Andy :-) On 26 October 2014 18:44, Andy Mabbett a...@pigsonthewing.org.uk wrote: I used to drive under and over Hockley Flyover daily, but I never knew about the artwork(s) there, by William Mitchell: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Mitchell_(sculptor) until today.
