Mural celebrates town stars

Bosses at the Cwrw bar in King Street were granted listed building consent by Carmarthenshire Council in September last year for the the mural to be created on the outside wall of the venue on the corner of Little Water Street.

The project - three years in the making - features striking artwork by town-based artist Swci Delic, along with the names of top figures in entertainment and music on the wall.

Pulling it all together was Philip Cheater of Swansea-based Fresh Creative Co.
