Evesham Banksy?

We must have all walked passed this piece of street art, known locally as the "crying boy" a million times, but to be honest, I don't think any of us really took much notice, what with IKH's hedgehogs and all that!


Until yesterday that is, when Eric did take the time to stop to stand back and look at it more closely.


Was it? Could it be ...........


...... a real, life, actual Banksy in Evesham? 


Sadly, when he got home, it didn't take much research for Eric to discover that it isn't a Banksy, however he did uncover a little history about it ......... 

It's a Disney (no, not that one either) and when it first appeared, it was the subject of much debate in Evesham (none in Parliament, I don't think), again as to whether it was or it wasn't. Hey ho, a non claim to fame ....... but you never know what might pop up when you least expect it!
