The latest piece of public art in Swindon is an enormous mural in the town centre.

Created as part of the ongoing improvement programme at Fleming Way, the piece is being created on the rear of the H&M building.

It is the latest of countless murals painted throughout Swindon since the 1970s in various programmes.

The town was a pioneer of the public mural movement, notably through the work of Ken White, the Swindon artist whose work has been seen throughout the world and featured in many newspaper and magazine articles over the decades.

A council spokesperson said of the new mural: "Created and painted by Haz, of Hazard One, the mural features vibrant colours and an abstract floral design. It will sit behind the new toilet block that will shortly be installed.

"When complete this Summer, the new bus interchange and green corridor at Fleming Way will rejuvenate the key gateway into the town centre."
