A GROUP effort in Portishead has seen an ugly concrete wall transformed into a work of art.

Residents from the town and pupils from both Gordano School and St Peter’s Primary Schools worked with professional artist Tom Hines on an urban art project which left the wall at Brampton Community Park looking vibrant and interesting.

The painting is just one part of a redevelopment of the park, which has already seen new fencing and landscaping put in place. New play equipment is also planned for the near future.
