The Upper Ground in intu Chapelfield
The GoGoHare seen here is called Heptahare, sponsored by Dolphin Autos Norwich and was painted by Alix Carter.
Update:
Intu has gone into administration but its shopping centres can continue to trade for the time being, as the shops were owned by separate companies. It would be support services such as cleaning and front of house, which were run by Intu that would be affected. The news came after last-minute talks, during which the firm had failed to secure a standstill loan agreement with £4.5 billion debts. (Eastern Daily Press, 26 June 2020)
On 20 October 2020, Intu Chapelfield was renamed Chantry Place. The new name embraces the site’s medieval heritage as a secular college and chapel, built during the 1200s, which was known as a chantry. Chantry Road runs along the side of the centre and Chapelfield Plain has been renamed Chantry Square.

Big Bugs on tour - swallowtail caterpillar
Unfortunately they got this one rather wrong, in that it represents the caterpillar of the black swallowtail (Papilio polyxenes Fabricius), also known as American swallowtail or parsnip swallowtail, which is found throughout much of North America and certainly not in the UK. For photos and information about our native common yellow swallowtail butterfly, which can now only be seen (with luck) on the Norfolk Broads, go to this https://www.butterflyidentification.com/common-yellow-swallowtail.htm
