Exciting news: The Forest Hill Mural will be painted this weekend 
More details here.
Not only does this design feature the Horniman Walrus (a nod to our internationally-renowned local museum), but the artist, Lionel Stanhope, will paint the text in London Overground orange to make our mural even more unique to the SE23 area:
From @Lionel:
We wish you the best of luck, Lionel. Thanks to all who donated to our whirlwind crowdfunder to make this project a reality.
I look forward to seeing the finished work.
I wonder if, at some point in the future, that dead lamppost could be turned into a ground based up-lighter?
Perhaps @MajaHilton could influence Lewisham’s street lighting people/contractor to remove it if it is truly redundant.
Loving the new Overground Orange for the lettering. It will really pop out against the blue and, as you say, give our sign a bit of individuality.
Oh wow how exciting!
Quick work! I don’t have enough likes for this…
The orange was a great colour choice. And I had originally preferred the green background option.
The orange and blue really sing to each other. We’ve got a contemporary sign with a nod towards tradition, the perfect combination.
Wow, that is coming along nicely. Look forward to seeing it in the flesh soon.
Had a good day today. Wall is dry and clean. This is how I left it for today. Back to tomorrow for lots more.
Top work - it looks great and I am sure it will look even better when done.
So cool!
It looks amazing! The colours are great. The dog might get a bonus walk this evening to check it out…
Looking absolutely fantastic,great work Lionel
It is much more prominent than i was expecting. Another landmark for Forest Hill
