West End Tram

While cautiously trawling the back alleys of West End, we finally tracked down this mural that can be and was frustratingly elusive. It is sadly hidden well away from public view.

 

Wet End, down by the river was once the terminus of a tram line, route 77 from New Farm Park. Sadly, the system closed in April 1969 and since then, the pretty route has been operated by diesel and now gas buses.

 

This is quite a fun mural, using the architecture of the building to enhance the picture. Shame it isn't in a more prominent spot.
