Defaced Telford bus stop remembrance mural restored by artist

A bus stop mural that was defaced with white paint has been restored by the artist who created it.

The painting in Leegomery, Telford, was created by Neil Willis and features scenes of remembrance, including a union jack, poppies and soldiers.

Mr Willis has been employed to decorate a number of bus shelters in the area and said he had been pleased with the reaction from passers-by and local residents.

Telford and Wrekin Council said: “These murals are more than just decorations, they’re part of our identity, honouring our history and community pride. Many residents value this community symbol.”
