Coronation Street Memorial Bench

Towards the end of  2017, I had the opportunity of creating this lovely Coronation Street memorial bench for the set of ITV’s ‘Coronation Street’. The bench was created by myself at my mosaic studio in Nidderdale, then placed in a new part of the Coronation Street set. The bench is in remembrance of the victims who lost their lives in the Manchester arena bombing in 2017.  The flowers in the mosaic design represent the lives lost.
