Liberal Democrats say “Let’s repair the millennium mosaic”

Liberal Democrat Councillor Andrew Hollyer is asking residents to come forward if they would like to be involved in efforts to restore the mosaic on the floor of the gazebo in Ethel Ward Playing Field in Haxby, or if they were involved in its creation.

Originally produced by the children of Haxby and Wigginton to celebrate the millennium, the mosaic is now nearing 25 years of age and is in real need of restoration and repair.

Councillor Andrew Hollyer said:

“One of the very few, possibly only, pieces of public art in Haxby and Wigginton is the mosaic on the floor of the gazebo in Ethel Ward Playing Field and it needs repair.

“Plans are only at a very early stage, but it would be wonderful if, as a community, we could come together to restore the mosaic to its former glory in time for its 25th anniversary.

“As the mosaic was originally produced by the children of Haxby and Wigginton, we’re keen to involve the current generation.”
