For many years a huge mural to the inventor of stainless steel, Harry Brearley, has adorned the wall of the Howard Hotel. Unfortunately in the last few months this wonderful piece by Faunagraphic was vandalised to the point that it had become an unfortunate eyesore. However, now thanks to local artist Jo Peel a new large mural greets travelers as they approach the train station from the city centre.

This new piece is a celebration of Sheffield’s industrial heritage and its forever changing skyline. If you like this piece make sure you check out some of Jo’s other works found around the city.
