19 08, 09 Topic: Peter Yates

Just as Beacon House boxes in their Peter Yates ‘Shells’ mural, two Peter Yates murals are rediscovered in a Ryder and Yates house in Cumbria. The new owners of Harlequin House, as it was known when built have restored the murals to their 1960’s condition.


First four images are original from the early 60s. October 11, 2009 visit : The owner very kindly showed us around the house and restored murals. Our kindest thanks to her for her time and for sharing the murals with us.
