This mural is on the gable end of the building overlooking the front of Loughborough student accommodation agency Loc8me in Ashby Square.

The creator of the mural, artist Dan Smith, speaking in the Loughborough Echo, says: “I would like to see a street art scene in Loughborough. There are a lot of artists here that complain that the council do not do enough and there is nowhere to do it.”

It’s difficult to see a connection between the mural and Loughborough but it certainly brightens the place up.
