The security fence at Eastgate Image contains tributes to the history of Bridgeton and its people, including the singer and songwriter Frankie Miller http://www.frankiemiller.net/ . The words form the shape of Miller's trademark bowler hat. "I left my home in Brigton town with all the buildings falling down went to seek my fortune went to seek my fame all the folks I knew so well all the stories fit to tell my ma said the boy child's got to roam lord knows when I'll wend my way back home well I wander here and I wander there I wander almost everywhere got to find my baby got to find my soul lord knows when I'll wend my way back home though I'm not in trouble though I'm not in pain each and every bar room get to look the same I've been up all night just walking around with all the places shutting down looking at the long lost lonely souls lord knows when I'll wend my way back home Frankie Miller"
