A huge - and hugely popular - new mural in Preston city centre will remain in place after town hall officials concluded that it did not harm the listed building on which it had been painted without planning permission.
The ‘Mother’ artwork appeared on the side of Hogarths gin bar on Church Street in July. However, as the Lancashire Post revealed last month, an oversight by the owners of the Grade II-listed property meant that the depiction - of a woman cradling a lamb - did not have the green light from Preston City Council’s planning department.
After being posted on the Preston Past and Present page on Facebook, the striking image striking her protective pose attracted more than 3,100 likes – with the group’s administrators declaring it “the most popular post we’ve ever had”. The online compliments showered on the work were matched only by the seemingly universal horror that Preston’s ‘Mother’ might meet an untimely end.
