Familiar Mural on the Coastal Pathway to be Removed but Hopefully Replaced

Click to enlarge image of mosaic mural

Regular walkers and cyclists that use the coastal pathway from Douglas Terrace to the Stannergate will soon find that a distinctive mosaic panel will have vanished. The panel is located close to the Douglas Terrace end of the coastal pathway. The mosaic is being removed along with the concrete panel to which it has been stuck, as part of the latest phase of the upgrading of the coastal pathway.

For the sake of posterity, I thought that this public artwork deserved remembering before it was gone.  It has brought some colour and a riddle to the wanderings of folk who read its message: 'If you take the time to look, you'll find wild flowers ....'

Broughty Ferry Environmental Project, who installed this mural, are hopeful that they will be able to replace it with another mosaic in a new location, once the construction work is complete. 

See 'And God Created the Dighty' at Bf Environment Project 22 March 7pm

Broughty Ferry Environmental Project will be holding their Annual General Meeting on Tuesday March 22nd beginning at 7pm in Broughty Ferry Library.

The AGM will be followed by the screening of five short films made by local film makers. entitled

And God Created the Dighty

These films are about the Dighty burn yet not about the Dighty burn; rather they tell of those who have lived by its banks, whose lives the river flows through as the blood in their veins. Be prepared to be surprised!

Followed by refreshments.
