The design for the Grangemouth town centre mural has now been decided on and the colourful creation will soon adorn the Kerse Road walls for decades to come.

The Kerse Road Gap Project had moved on to the next stage of creation, with people asked which one of the available designs they would like to see most on the walls.

The three choices available were:

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.

People went with choice A.

A Grangemouth and Skinflats Community Council spokesperson said: “Thank you so much to the 815 people who voted on the Kerse Road art work project. We are pleased to say there was one clear winner with 376 votes.

"We will update once a date is set for the artwork to begin.”

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.

People were asked which specific areas of the docks and the old town they wanted to see depicted on the mural and if the murals should represent community spirit, history or young people, or should they tell a story or just be decorative?
