The hall is open
The Christadelphian hall is halfway through being brought down. It seems to be a sudden turn of events as the hall still has lots of furniture inside still.

From below the ground to above the ground
Peasedown and the surrounding area has a history of coal mining in the past. One of the great interests of the miners used to be pigeon racing. Part of the wall on the Fosse Way is given over to a mural depicting these two threads of village life.
Community artist Andrew Bolton has many years of helping people to find their creativity in local projects and this is one. By getting the villagers to make small mosaics of pigeons he has put them on several buildings along the main road.

A wall on Braysdown Lane
Another wall with a miner and pigeon theme. Local people have created the pigeon mosaics, along with a couple of ceramic tiles with poetry on them. Curiously, the latter also have eight figure O.S. map references on them too.
