Residents asked to vote on their choice for Grangemouth town centre mural
The design for the Grangemouth town centre mural has been whittled down to three options and voting is now open to decide which colourful creation will be adorning the Kerse Road walls for decades to come.
The Kerse Road Gap Project has now moved on to the next stage of creation and people are being asked which one of the available designs they would like to see most on the walls.
The three choices available are:
A – The old town featuring the clock, with a man and child picked up from the McGregor Bros Grocer's, the family doctor illustration and dock side with heron.
B – Flower background – potentially wild flowers – to accompany the planting along the front of the building, with smaller photos of the old town and canal.
C – Sepia style photos with a banner, and potential border picked up from the stained glass church window in the heritage centre.
The town centre’s Kerse Road office block came down two years ago and now the sides of the remaining structures are to be adorned with two murals which will depict the town’s docks area and Grangemouth Old Town area.
Earlier in the year, people were asked which specific areas of the docks and the old town they wanted to see depicted on the mural – some examples include the old town clock, dock cranes, dock life and people.
They were asked if the murals should represent community spirit, history or young people, or should they tell a story or just be decorative?
