South Wigston's history inspires new mural

A new mural pays tribute to the history of a Leicestershire town.

The artwork, which overlooks Albion Street in South Wigston, features Orson Wright, who is said to have built much of the town in the late 19th Century.

Commissioned by Oadby and Wigston Borough Council, the artwork has been painted by members of Graffwerk - the street art group behind the Bring the Paint festival in Leicester.

大象传媒 Leicester reporter Ellis Maddison has been talking to local people for their reaction.
