The mural itself isn't of historic value, I believe it was commissioned in the 1970's so wouldn't really qualify.
However it does, or did depict an historic event, there are other signs of the aforementioned event in Newport the museum, and the Westgate hotel I believe are still in situ. I guess it depends on how much of the past one chooses to cling on to, I am more one for looking toward the future, the past is what one reflects on for education. |
