The artwork on one side of the lamppost on Penny Lane Image depicts Tiviot Dale Station 1902: "In those days there was Cadbury Chocolate Distribution Depot in Heaton Mersey. They used to ship the chocolate out to the soldiers on the front lines. Every night we would stand guard holding a brush stale with a bayonet strapped the end of it, protecting the chocolate".
