Industry Mural, Saville Street

After several months of hard work, a building near the town centre has been transformed into a tribute to the town’s industrial past by two graffiti artists. The 50ft by 40ft mural was revealed early in July 2020 on the side of a former mill building on Saville Street. It is the work of Manchester-based artist Tony Brady, who paints under the name Kelzo, and Evan Barlow, known as Entise. The two graffiti artists were commissioned by the Mandale Group, who own the building, in March this year.
