In the village of Wheathampstead stands The Swan public house, a listed building, which means strict rules apply with regard to structural alterations. Unfortunately in 2013 a fire broke out engolfing the roof, which necessitated the public house closing until restoration work can commence. To enclose the building a hoarding was erected, which looked rather drab, so with the help of a resident artist the children of the village painted these murals which depict well-known people who have lived locally. See if you can look them up on wikipedia and read their history.
