The brainchild of Councillor Mike Rodger (Newbury Mayor 2004/2005), the Newbury
Timeline Mosaic has now been completed and unveiled to the public.
The
12 plates outline 1,000 years of the town’s history, from the
town’s founding by Ernulf de Hesdin to Jack of Newbury, and
from the Civil War to the peace protests at Greenham Common. More
than 4,000 people helped put in the pieces of the design by local
artist Paul Forsey.
Visitors to the town can find the mosaic set
into the pavement, on the canal side
of
the central library in the Wharf.
